A vision-based humanoid robot and some behaviors are designed and implemented for HuroCup. HuroCup is one league of FIRA RoboWorld Cup. The competition events of Marathon and Penalty Kick are described and their corresponding behaviors are proposed in this paper. A humanoid robot with 23 DOFs (degrees of freedom) is designed so that it can do some human-like motions. A webcam is installed in the humanoid...
This paper mainly covers the development of a FPGA-based fuzzy controller and image processing system for a small-sized humanoid robot. All the computations are operated on an FPGA board including the real-time image processing and the fuzzy logic controller design for PK event in FIRA RoboWorld cup. At first, the specification of the hardware is introduced. The image processing is then employed for...
An SOPC based small-sized humanoid robot for weight lifting is introduced in this paper. All performances will be implemented using the SOPC chip, Altera EP1C12F324C8. The contribution of this paper is mainly the design of the self-balanced control of a small sized humanoid robot. According to the concept of sensory reflex, we combine the signals of the accelerometers and force sensors with a fuzzy...
A static balancing control method is proposed and implemented on a humanoid robot so that the robot can stand and balance on a plane. A small-size humanoid robot named TWNHR-IV with 26 degree-of-freedom (DOF) is implemented. A 3-axis accelerometer is installed on TWNHR-IV to obtain the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis accelerations of TWNHR-IV. Based on the obtained information from the 3-axis accelerometer,...
This paper mainly concerns about the development of a small-sized humanoid robot for penalty kick function in FIRA by using FPGA. The environment information is captured by the CMOS image sensor and the strategy is processed by FPGA. We will describe how the robot search the ball in the field and the tracking algorithm will be introduced. The strategy for PK event will also be presented in this paper...
