讲座内容 |
The monkey type of robot has many different locomotion modes, such as brachiation mode, swinging from branch to branch, biped mode, walking like humanoid, 4 leg mode, walking like animals, ladder mode, climbing up and descending ladders and others. This multi-locomotion robot (MLR) is studied how to make the locomotion stable and how to use and select the various locomotion modes. There are two methods for controlling the stable locomotion: The learning control method and the task oriented model based control.
For the learning control methods, soft computing, reinforcement learning, neuro computing, and AI approach are applied for making the locomotion modes stable. For the task oriented model based control, Passive Dynamic Autonomous Control (PDAC) will be shown how the biped robot can make stable locomotion and then furthermore, applied for the quad locomotion mode and ladder climbing.
Depending on the environment situations, the robot can select and adjust the best locomotion methods from biped mode to quad locomotion and vice versa. The robot stability can be augmented and improved by swinging the robot arms and using canes.
Overall, the multi-locomotion robot (MLR) control methods show the more varieties of the stable locomotion for the robot.
