Unfortunately, their control is more difficult because they have to deal with the traditional mapping and path planning problems, as well as foothold computation, leg trajectories and posture control in order to achieve successful navigation. Many parameters need to be adjusted in real time to keep the robot stable and safe while it is moving. In this paper, we will present a new framework for a quadruped robot, which performs goal-oriented navigation on unknown rough terrain by using inertial measurement data and stereo vision. This framework includes perception and control, and allows the robot to navigate in a straight line forward to a visual goal in a difficult environment. The developed rough terrain locomotion system does not need any mapping or path planning: the stereo camera is used to visually guide the robot and evaluate the terrain roughness and an inertial measurement unit (IMU) is used for posture control. This new framework is an important step forward to achieve fully autonomous navigation because in the case of problems in the SLAM mapping, a reactive locomotion controller is always active. This ensures stable locomotion in rough terrain, by combining direct visual feedback and inertial measurements. By implementing this controller, an autonomous navigation system has been developed, which is goal-oriented and overcomes disturbances from the ground, the robot weight, or external forces. Indoor and outdoor experiments with our quadruped robot show the effectiveness and the robustness of this framework.","PeriodicalId":102284,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Practical Robot Applications (TePRA)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125356315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the future, humanoid robots are required to replace human beings to operate in natural or damaged man-engineered environments. In such environments, the robots may have to walk on rough surfaces such as grass, sands or rocks, which all impose great challenges to the stability of biped locomotion due to uncertainties and deformations of these surfaces. We investigate how humanoid robots can walk on these surfaces, using the Hubo 2+humanoid robot as the target of study. We will first introduce the overall structure of Hubo 2+, and model the deformation characteristics these surfaces. Then new walking patterns, a \"step-over\" gait and a ski-type gait, are proposed as a global approach to maintain stability while compliant motion is used to solve the robust foot-holding problem. Simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the new approaches.","PeriodicalId":102284,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Practical Robot Applications (TePRA)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124331388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The system is intended to be used onboard an autonomous vehicle operating in natural settings, such as an agricultural environment, to perform 3D scene reconstruction and segmentation tasks. First, the multi-baseline stereo sensor and the associated processing algorithms are described; then, a self-learning ground classifier is applied to segment the scene into ground and non-ground regions, using geometric features, without any a priori assumption on the terrain characteristics. Experimental results obtained with an off-road vehicle operating in an agricultural test field are presented to validate the proposed approach.
