Human balancing can be modeled for the sagittal and frontal planes using double inverted pendulum (DIP) biomechanics representations. The DIP approach has also been used in the DEC (disturbances estimation and compensation) model for balance control of a humanoid robot in the sagittal plane. In this paper, it is implemented on a 14 degrees of freedom humanoid for the frontal plane. Positive results open the possibility to use the DEC concept for a bio-inspired modular control architecture for both the sagittal and the frontal planes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
