Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, I investigated a walking generation method using the whole body motions to achieve high-speed limit cycle walking. Biped walking generation methods using lower body motions were studied. We however consider that walking generation methods using effects of arm-swing motions and inclining torso posture to achieve high-speed limit cycle walking. We first showed a novel running robot with an inerter. The robot can improve the running speed using inerter effects, since the inerter can change the natural period of the up-and-down motion of the robots. Moreover, we developed a novel mobile robot with a wobbling mass. This robot achieves level ground walking using effects of up-and-down motions of the wobbling mass. The periodic up-and-down motion of the wobbling mass generate propulsive effects of the robots. So, our mobile robot can walk on level ground with vertical torso posture.
