Abstract

Engineering Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Robotics Science & Technology Technology
By employing the concept of "Reversible Switching Surfaces" (RSS), we demonstrate that it is possible to stabilize unstable periodic orbits of a push-off based dynamic walker. The concept is implemented by a simple event-based control which kinematically controls the foot during the swing phase to adjust the heel-strike. The feedback controller is designed based on the theory of Virtual Holonomic Constraints (VHC). Simulation results demonstrate, there exists a broad range of VHC which satisfies stable dynamic walking.
