There are many difficulties in operating a humanoid which has high degree-of-freedom and instability in balancing its body. In addition, due to the shape of a humanoid, it is expected to have motions like a human. In order to overcome its operational difficulties and to provide a humanlike motion, a teleoperation with the motion imitation is studied in this paper. Specifically, a framework for online...
In this paper, we have developed a novel control law to exhibit human-motion characteristics in redundant robot arm-trunk systems for reaching tasks. This newly developed method nullifies the need for the computation of pseudo-inverse of Jacobian while the formulation and optimization of any artificial performance index is not necessary. The time-varying properties of the muscle stiffness and damping...
When a humanoid lifts a heavy object, or carries an object in a bag or a carriage, it needs to change the reference CoM(center of mass) and ZMP(Zero Moment Position) in order not to fall down. However, it is not natural to design a reference CoM and ZMP to lift or to carry an object every time. In this paper, objects held by a hand are considered as an augmented virtual link connected at the end of...
