Human inspired fall arrest strategy for humanoid robots based on stiffness ellipsoid optimisation.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Aug 23, 2021
Falls are a common risk and impose severe threats to both humans and humanoid robots as a product of bipedal locomotion. Inspired by human fall arrest, we present a novel humanoid robot fall prevention strategy by using arms to make contact with envi...

Inverse optimal control to model human trajectories during locomotion.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering Aug 16, 2021
Cobotic applications require a good knowledge of human behaviour in order to be cleverly, securely and fluidly performed. For example, to make a human and a humanoid robot perform a co-navigation or a co-manipulation task, a model of human walking tr...

Efficient bipedal locomotion on rough terrain via compliant ankle actuation with energy regulation.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Aug 12, 2021
Legged locomotion enables robotic platforms to traverse on rough terrain, which is quite challenging for other locomotion types, such as in wheeled and tracked systems. However, this benefit-moving robustly on rough terrain-comes with an inherent dra...

Anisotropic compliance of robot legs improves recovery from swing-phase collisions.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Aug 12, 2021
Uneven terrain in natural environments challenges legged locomotion by inducing instability and causing limb collisions. During the swing phase, the limb releases from the ground and arcs forward to target a secure next foothold. In natural environme...

Generation of propulsive force via vertical undulations in snakes.

The Journal of experimental biology Jul 6, 2021
Lateral undulation is the most widespread mode of terrestrial vertebrate limbless locomotion, in which posteriorly propagating horizontal waves press against environmental asperities (e.g. grass, rocks) and generate propulsive reaction forces. We hyp...

Distributed-force-feedback-based reflex with online learning for adaptive quadruped motor control.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society Jun 5, 2021
Biological motor control mechanisms (e.g., central pattern generators (CPGs), sensory feedback, reflexes, and motor learning) play a crucial role in the adaptive locomotion of animals. However, the interaction and integration of these mechanisms - ne...
