Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we focused on the continuous joint control of a quadrupedal walking robot and constructed torso joints with viscoelastic properties. This enables the robot to undergo trunk oscillations and allows for parameter adjustments during walking, greatly contributing to achieving our research objectives. Furthermore, by considering unresolved issues and the results of prototype construction, we conduct on-site experiments and computer simulations to enhance the robot's whole-body motion and performance. Through the creation of simulation models and environmental testing, concrete approaches toward the practical application of the robot are becoming clearer.
