Kinetic study of a bipedal humanoid robot and mode of the spherical inverted pendulum
Abstract: Studies on an anthropomorphic biped walking robot have led to the expectation that a bipedal humanoid robot will actively participate in human living environments. The authors created the human-size 35 active DOF bipedal humanoid robot "WABIAN" and the human-size 41 active DOF bipedal humanoid robot "WABIAN-R" as the initial step in creating a bipedal humanoid robot. The authors also put forth a fundamental method of controlling whole-body cooperative dynamic biped …
