Facility of Humanoid Robot Control via the Isosceles Triangle Method

Abstract:

This study demonstrates the application of the simple isosceles triangle concept to adjust the position of a humanoid robot from the lying to the standing position. In robot control, the stability of the standing posture of the robot is prioritized to the robot to efficiently perform expected actions, thereby enabling the robot to perform dancing or boxing motions. This study aims to achieve the complete transition of a humanoid robot from the lying state to the standing state by a simple control design.
