Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, the optimization method of redundant inputs for a six-legged robot is examined. The optimization method is applied for a six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) control of the robot body. The 6-DOF control is composed by a posture control method and the walking directional control. The gait is 5-support-legged-walking and the posture control and the walking directional control are performed. In the case of 5-support-legged-walking, the two legs are redundant. LQI control systems are constructed, and a method to optimize the obtained feedback (FB) inputs using an optimization method examined. The effectiveness of the 6-DOF control method of the body when some actuators of the leg links were damaged was examined for a posture control and a walking directional control, respectively. The effectiveness of the examined methods is confirmed by 3D simulations.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

6脚ロボットの胴体6自由度制御手法における脚リンクアクチュエータの冗長入力の最適化手法とその制御性能,脚リンクアクチュエータが故障した場合の歩容と胴体6自由度制御手法のロバスト性能について明らかにした。5脚支持歩行の場合,3脚支持が維持できる状態であれば,2脚のアクチュエータが損傷しても5脚支持と同等の制御性能が得られることが明らかとなった。
