Abstract:

As a robot could be stable statically standing on three or more legs, a six legged walking robot can be highly flexible in movements and perform different missions without dealing with serious kinematic and dynamic problems. An experimental six legged walking robot with 18 degrees of freedom is studied and built in this paper. The kinematic and gait analysis formulations are demonstrated by an experimental hexapod robot. The results show that the robot walks well as it was simulated.

Six-Legged Robot Gait Analysis

This paper includes results of investigations of real six-legged robot. By the name of hexapod we call a robot that walks on six legs. Due to specific construction of legs, each leg has 3 degrees of freedom, prototype constructed by us allows to model gait of reptiles and insects. Presented system of rotation angle of each of the cells (servos) allows to analyze every single type of the movemen...

Kinematic and Dynamic Modeling of a Six Legged Robot

Legged vehicles can walk on rough and irregular surfaces with a high degree of softness . This is one of the main reasons why legged machines have received increasing attention by the scienti c community. This article presents a simulator for a six leg machine. Both kinematic and dynamic models are developed. Kinematic equations are derived with Denavit-Hartenberg method. The Free Body Diagram ...

Design and prototype of a six-legged walking insect robot

Abstract Purpose – This paper seeks to develop a novel legged robot. Design/methodology/approach – First, the paper models the legged robot using 3D computer model by intelligent inspiration of biological principles. Then, based on this model, it develops the prototype of the legged robot. Findings – A novel motion mechanism is used and only two actuators are used for driving the system. Origin...

Analysis of Six-legged Walking Robots

In the present paper, an attempt has been made to carry out kinematic and dynamic analysis of a six-legged robot. A three-revolute (3R) kinematic chain has been chosen for each leg mechanism in order to mimic the leg structure of an insect. Denavit–Hartenberg (D-H) conventions are used to perform kinematic analysis of the six-legged robot. The direct and inverse kinematic analysis for each leg ...

Supporting locomotive functions of a six-legged walking robot

This paper presents a method for building a foothold selection module as well as methods for the stability check for a multi-legged walking robot. The foothold selection decision maker is shaped automatically, without expert knowledge. The robot learns how to select appropriate footholds by walking on rough terrain or by testing ground primitives. The gathered knowledge is then used to find a r...
