최근 들어 안정적인 보행 패턴 생성을 위해서 많은 방법들이 제안 되고 있다. 대부분의 논문에서 주기적인 보행에 대한 연구는 이루어지고 있으나 첫 보행 구간과 마지막 보행 구간에 대한 분석은 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 논문은 첫 보행 구간과 마지막 보행 구간에 대한 분석을 통해 기존의 역 진자 모델(Inverted pendulum model)을 기반으로 부드러운 무게 중심의 궤적을 생성하는 해석적 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 먼저 정현파 함수를 이용해 영 모멘트 위치(ZMP, Zero Moment Point) 궤적을 설계한다. 영 모멘트 위치 궤적 설계 시 첫 보행 구간과 마지막 보행 구간에 대해 영 모멘트 위치와 무게 중심 간의 비 최소 위상(non-minimum phase) 시스템의 특성을 이용한다. 제안된 방법을 이용하여 주기적인 보행 구간 및 첫 보행 구간과 마지막 보행 구간에서 부드러운 무게 중심 궤적이 생성됨을 시뮬레이션을 통해 구현하여 제안된 방법의 유효성을 보인다.

Generally, biped walking is difficult to control because a biped robot is a nonlinear system with various uncertainties. In this paper, we propose a hybrid control system to improve the efficiency of position tracking performance of biped locomotion. In our control system, the wavelet neural network (WNN) based on Sliding mode controller is used as a main controller which estimates a biped robot model, and the compensated controller is proposed to compensate the estimation error. A WNN is utilized to estimate uncertain and nonlinear system parameters, where the weights of WNN are trained by adaptive laws that are induced from the Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control system is verified through computer simulations.

In this paper, we propose stable walking algorithm using ZMP for the biped robot in the slope-way. At first, we define discrete state variables that classified stable area and unstable area by center of mass from ZMP during slope-way walking. For the stable walking gait, the discrete state controller for determining the high-level and low-level decision making are designed. The high-level decision making is composed of the discrete state variables; left foot support phase, right foot support phase, flat-way, and slope-way. Then the continuous state controller is implemented for the low-level decision making using ZMP.

Biped locomotion is a popular research area in robotics due to the high adaptability of a walking robot in an unstructured environment. When attempting to automate the motion planning process for a biped walking robot, one of the main issues is assurance of dynamic stability of motion. This can be categorized into three general groups: body stability, body path stability, and gait stability. A zero moment point (ZMP), a point where the total forces and moments acting on the robot are zero, is usually employed as a basic component for dynamically stable motion. In this rarer, learning based neuro-fuzzy systems have been developed and applied to model ZMP trajectory of a biped walking robot. As a result, we can provide more improved insight into physical walking mechanisms.

This paper aims to provide a way to improve dynamic stability of biped robots against undesirable disturbances and in a slope. By using an angular velocity sensor and an acceleration sensor on its waist, we can make a medium-sized biped robot walk stably in a slope against impulsive disturbances. In addition, it is possible for the robot to walk stably in an unknown slope. The measured signals from the sensor are used for compensating the reference angles of ankle, knee, and pelvis joints. Some experiments show that the stability of the robot is much enhanced by using cheat sensors and a simple algorithm. This work helps bided robots walk more stably in real environments.

This paper discusses the method of moving object detection for biped robot walking. Most researches on vision based object detection have mostly focused on fixed camera based algorithm itself. However, developing vision systems for biped walking robot is an important and urgent issue since hired walking robots are ultimately developed not only for researches but to be utilized in real life. In the research, method for moving object detection has been developed for task assignment and execution of biped robot as well as for human robot interaction (HRI) system. But these methods are not suitable to biped walking robot. So, we suggest the advanced method which is suitable to biped walking robot platform. For carrying out certain tasks, an object detecting system using modified optical flow algorithm by wireless vision camera is implemented in a biped walking robot.

This paper deals with the biped robot gait on changing the initial postures. Gait of a biped robot depends on the constraints of mechanical kinematics and initial posture. Also biped robot's dynamic walking stability is investigated by ZMP(Zero Moment Point). The path trajectory. with the knee joint bent like a human, is generated and applied with the above considerations. To decrease trajectory tracking error, in this paper, a new initial posture similar to bird's case is proposed and realized with the real robot.

We propose an analytic trajectory planning method using a wavelet neural network (WNN) for a natural and stable locomotion of the 9-link biped robot. We design a appropriate locomotion, which have a kick-action, by means of a ballastic walking model condition. In this paper, a WNN is used to interpolate the trajectory planed by the analytic method. Finally, we show the proposed trajectories through the computer simulation.

This study is concerned with development of 3-Dimensional simulator of a biped robot that has a prismatic balancing weight or a revolute balancing weight. The dynamic stability equation of a biped robot which have a prismatic balancing weight is conditional linear but a walking robot's stability equation with a revolute balancing weight is nonlinear. To get a stable gait of a biped robot, stabilization equations with ZMP (Zero Moment Point) are modeled as non-homogeneous second order differential equations for each balancing weight type. A trajectory of balancing weight can be directly calculated with the FDM (Finite Difference Method) solution of the linearized differential equation. In this paper, the 3-Dimensional graphic simulator is programmed to get and calculate the desired ZMP and the actual ZMP. Walking of 4 steps was simulated and verified. This balancing system will be applied to a biped humanoid robot, which consist Begs and upper body, at future work.
