본 논문에서는 기존에 발표되었던 데이터 기반보행제어 기법의 단점을 보완하는 다리 간 충돌 회피 기법을 제안한다. 2010년에 제안된 Lee et. al. 의 데이터 기반 이족 보행 제어 기법 [1]은 경우에 따라 보행 중 두 다리가 서로 교차하는 동작을 만들어내기도 하는데, 이는 실제 사람 혹은 이족 보행 로봇의 보행에서는 실현될 수 없는 동작이다. 본 논문에서는 스윙 힙(swing hip)의 각도를 변경하는 피드백 규칙에 스탠스 레그 (stance leg)와의 충돌을 피할 수 있는 추가적인 각도조절을 도입하여 스윙 풋 (swing foot)이 스탠스 풋 (stance foot)을 지난 이후에만 스탠스 풋보다 안쪽으로 움직일 수 있도록 하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이를 통해 기존의 제어기 동작 방식에 최소한의 변경과 추가적인 계산만을 더하여 두 다리가 교차하지 않는 안정적인 보행 결과를 만들어 낼 수 있다.

In recent years, many robotics researches have been focused on developing human-friendly robots, that is, humanoid biped robots. The researches of humanoid robots include various areas such as hardware development, control of biped locomotion, artificial intelligence, human interaction, etc. The present work concerns the hardware development of a mid-size humanoid robot, BONOBO, focusing on rapid development of outer body parts with integrated application if CAD/CAM/CAE/RP. Most parts are three-dimensionally designed using 3D CAD, and effectively connected with CAE analyses using both kinematic simulation and structural analysis. In order to reduce lead time and investment cost for parts developments, Rapid Prototyping (RP) and CAM are selectively utilized for manufacturing body parts. These master parts are then replicated using the vacuum casting process, from which we can obtain plastic parts repeatedly. Through this integrated approach, the first prototype of BONOBO can be successfully developed with relatively low time and investment costs.

This paper proposes and demonstrates novel flexible contact force sensing devices for 3-dimensional force measurement. To realize the sensor, polyimide and polydimethylsiloxane are used as a substrate, which makes it flexible. Thin-film metal strain gauges, which are incorporated into the polymer, are used for measuring the three-dimensional contact forces. The force sensor characteristics are evaluated against normal and shear load. The fabricated force sensor can measure normal loads up to 4N. The sensor output signals are saturated against load over 4N. Shear loads can be detected by different voltage drops in strain gauges. The device has no fragile structures; therefore, it can be used as a ground reaction force sensor for balance control in humanoid robots. Four force sensors are assembled and placed in the four corners of the robot's sole. By increasing bump dimensions, the force sensor can measure load up to 20N. When loads are exerted on the sole, the ground reaction force can be measured by these four sensors. The measured forces can be used in the balance control of biped locomotion system.
