Threaded C is a meta-language that is based on C, but is annotated with thread, monitor thread, and semaphore markup. Threaded C uses the runtime provided by the Freezer OS, a small, memory-efficient embedded kernel. The combination of Freezer OS and Threaded C allows the simple expression of common control problems in robotics. The system is geared especially towards robotics education, as it matches...
Basic walking gaits are a common building block for many activities in humanoid robotics, such as robotic soccer. The nature of the walking surface itself also has a strong affect on an appropriate gait. Much work is currently underway in improving humanoid walking gaits by dealing with sloping, debris-filled, or otherwise unstable surfaces. Travel on slippery surfaces such as ice, for example, greatly...
This paper is part of our on-going research in balancing of humanoid robots in highly dynamic environments. We focus on balancing of a humanoid robot on a Bongo board. One of the problems with balancing in highly dynamic environments such as the Bongo board is the fact that any control algorithm needs to overcome the inherent latency and jitter in the sensors as well as in the actuators of the robot,...
