چکیده

This work of thesis deals both with design and intelligent control of a humanoid robot, and its main aim is to develop an energy-efficient and dynamically stable locomotion. In the first part, we present a systematic method to evaluate the energy efficiency of a biped robot. This method is then used to obtain some information about the performance of materials and actuators that could be used for design. Results collected are integrated with the experience of previous works, and finally summarized to suggest some efficient configurations. These indications are meant to be used for future developments of LARP, the humanoid robot of the AIRLab, Politecnico di Milano. The

Flexible Foot/Ankle Based on PKM with Force/Torque Sensor for Humanoid Robot

This paper describes the development of a novel humanoid robot foot/ankle based on an orientation Parallel Kinematic Mechanism for intelligent and flexible control. With three identical Universal-Prismatic-Spherical prismatic-actuated limbs and a central Universal-Revolute passive limb, the PKM can perform three degrees of freedom rotation motions. In order to enable the humanoid robot safely t...

Study of Evolutionary and Swarm Intelligent Techniques for Soccer Robot Path Planning

Finding an optimal path for a robot in a soccer field involves different parameters such as the positions of the robot, positions of the obstacles, etc. Due to simplicity and smoothness of Ferguson Spline, it has been employed for path planning between arbitrary points on the field in many research teams. In order to optimize the parameters of Ferguson Spline some evolutionary or intelligent al...

Workspace Boundary Avoidance in Robot Teaching by Demonstration Using Fuzzy Impedance Control

The present paper investigates an intuitive way of robot path planning, called robot teaching by demonstration. In this method, an operator holds the robot end-effector and moves it through a number of positions and orientations in order to teach it a desired task. The presented control architecture applies impedance control in such a way that the end-effector follows the operator’s hand with d...
