Abstract
The mechanical design for biped walking of a humanoid robot doing the Argentina Tango is presented in this paper. Biped walking has long been studied in the area of robotic locomotion. The aim of this paper is to implement an Argentina Tango dancer-like walking motion with a humanoid robot by using a trajectory generation scheme. To that end, this paper uses blending polynominals whose parameters are determined based on PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) according to conditions that make the most of the Argentina Tango's characteristics. For the stability of biped walking, the ZMP (Zero Moment Point) control method is used. The feasibility of the proposed scheme is evaluated by simulating biped walking with the 3D Simscape robot model. The simulation results show the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method.
