Slip often occurs in humanoid robot walking, especially when the robot walks on a low friction floor or walks fast. Unexpected slip may cause the robot to fall and then sustain damage. In real environments, rotational and translational slip phenomena can happen during biped walking. Previous studies have mainly focused on solving these problems independently. In this paper, we propose strategies for simultaneous rotational and translational slip prevention based on a three mass model, which takes into account the effect of the swing leg. The rotational slip is prevented through a bionic walking pattern generator which mimics the yaw moment compensation mechanism of a human. The translational slip is eliminated through a novel reaction force ratio reduction control with the compensation of CoM (center of mass) acceleration. The effectiveness of the presented strategies is validated by simulations and experiments with an actual humanoid robot.
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.
