Balancing is a fundamental need for legged robots due to their unstable floating-base nature. Balance control has been thoroughly studied for simple models such as the linear inverted pendulum thanks to the concept of the instantaneous capture point (ICP), yet the constant center of mass height assumption limits the application. This paper explores balancing of the variable-height inverted pendulum (VHIP) model by introducing the emph{instantaneous capture input} (ICI), an extension of the ICP based on its key properties. Namely, the ICI can be computed as a function of the state, and when this function is used as the control policy, the ICI is rendered stationary and the system will eventually come to a stop. This characterization induces an analytical region of capturable states for the VHIP, which can be used to conceptually guide where to step. To further address state and control constraints during recovery, we present and theoretically analyze an explicit ICI-based controller with online optimal feedback gains. Simulations demonstrate the validity of our controller for capturability maintenance compared to an approach based on the divergent component of motion.

Achieving closed-loop control over wireless is crucial in realizing the vision of Industry 4.0 and beyond. This demonstration shows the viability of closed-loop control over wireless through a high-performance wireless solution. The closed-loop contr ol problem involves remote balancing of a two-wheeled robot that represents an inverted pendulum on wheels.
Soft pneumatic legged robots show promise in their ability to traverse a range of different types of terrain, including natural unstructured terrain met in applications like precision agriculture. They can adapt their body morphology to the intricaci es of the terrain at hand, thus enabling robust and resilient locomotion. In this paper we capitalize upon recent developments on soft pneumatic legged robots to introduce a closed-loop trajectory tracking control scheme for operation over flat ground. Closed-loop pneumatic actuation feedback is achieved via a compact and portable pneumatic regulation board. Experimental results reveal that our soft legged robot can precisely control its body height and orientation while in quasi-static operation based on a geometric model. The robot can track both straight line and curved trajectories as well as variable-height trajectories. This work lays the basis to enable autonomous navigation for soft legged robots.
The topic of this paper is to use an intuitive model-based approach to design a networked controller for a recent benchmark scenario. The benchmark problem is to remotely control a two-wheeled inverted pendulum robot via W-LAN communication. The robo t has to keep a vertical upright position. Incorporating wireless communication in the control loop introduces multiple uncertainties and affects system performance and stability. The proposed networked control scheme employs model predictive techniques and deliberately extends delays in order to make them constant and deterministic. The performance of the resulting networked control system is evaluated experimentally with a predefined benchmarking experiment and is compared to local control involving no delays.
The shaking force balancing is a well-known problem in the design of high-speed robotic systems because the variable dynamic loads cause noises, wear and fatigue of mechanical structures. Different solutions, for full or partial shaking force balanci ng, via internal mass redistribution or by adding auxiliary links were developed. The paper deals with the shaking force balancing of the Orthoglide. The suggested solution based on the optimal acceleration control of the manipulators common center of mass allows a significant reduction of the shaking force. Compared with the balancing method via adding counterweights or auxiliary substructures, the proposed method can avoid some drawbacks: the increase of the total mass, the overall size and the complexity of the mechanism, which become especially challenging for special parallel manipulators. Using the proposed motion control method, the maximal value of the total mass center acceleration is reduced, as a consequence, the shaking force of the manipulator decreases. The efficiency of the suggested method via numerical simulations carried out with ADAMS is demonstrated.
The ability of legged systems to traverse highly-constrained environments depends by and large on the performance of their motion and balance controllers. This paper presents a controller that excels in a scenario that most state-of-the-art balance c ontrollers have not yet addressed: line walking, or walking on nearly null support regions. Our approach uses a low-dimensional virtual model (2-DoF) to generate balancing actions through a previously derived four-term balance controller and transforms them to the robot through a derived kinematic mapping. The capabilities of this controller are tested in simulation, where we show the 90kg quadruped robot HyQ crossing a bridge of only 6 cm width (compared to its 4 cm diameter spherical foot), by balancing on two feet at any time while moving along a line. Lastly, we present our preliminary experimental results showing HyQ balancing on two legs while being disturbed.
