Humanoid Navigation Strategy Using Fuzzy Motion Planner in a Uneven Smart Home Environment

چکیده

This paper presents a fuzzy motion planner for humanoid robots in complex uneven environments. First, we define locomotion primitives for humanoid robots. A high-level planner finds a global path from a global navigation map that is generated based on a combination of 2.5 dimensional maps of the 3D workspace. A mid-level planner creates waypoints that help the robot efficiently cope with various obstacles using only a small set of locomotion primitives that are useful for stable navigation of the robot. A local planner searches for an optimal sequence of locomotion primitives along the global path by using fuzzy motion planning. We verify our approach on a virtual humanoid robot in a simulated environment. Simulation results show a reduction in planning time and the feasibility of the proposed method.

Planning Biped Navigation Strategies in Complex Environments

We present an algorithm for planning goal-directed footstep navigation strategies for biped robots through obstacle-filled environments and uneven ground. Planning footsteps is more general than most existing navigation methods designed for wheeled robots, since the options of stepping over or upon obstacles are available. Given a height map of the terrain and a discrete set of possible footste...

Motion planning for humanoid walking in a layered environment

Motion planning is one of the key capabilities for autonomous humanoid robots. Previous researches have focused on weight balancing, collision detection, and gait generation. Most planners either assume that the environment can be simplified to a 2D workspace or assume that the path is given. In this paper, we propose a motion planning system capable of generating both global and local motions ...

obile Robot Motion by Integration of Low-Level ehavior Control and High-Level Global Planning

This paper presents an efficient strategy for integrating lowlevel reactive behavior control and high-level global planning for robot motion. In low-level behavior control, robot navigation in unknown environments is performed by behavior fusion using fizzy logic; while a high-level planning method is used to determine robot motion direction since some information on environments is prior knowl...
