Proprioceptive Sensing for a Legged Robot
This thesis provides a methodology of sensory system development for a hexapod robot, working toward the development of dynamic behaviors utilizing feedback controllers. We develop an approach to utilizing strain gauges together with a simple data driven phenomenological model that simultaneously delivers information of leg touchdown, leg configuration, and ground reaction force suitable for ro...
متن کاملLoad Equalization on a Two-Armed Robot via Proprioceptive Sensing
As humans we use our arms and bodies in addition to our hands to grasp objects. We (and robots) often cannot use caging or closure strategies when manipulating bulky objects. This paper studies manipulating such objects in the context of a particular task: equalizing a load across the arms of a two-armed robot. Our PR2 robot performs this task using only proprioceptive force sensing and a simpl...
متن کاملA proprioceptive neuromechanical theory of crawling.
The locomotion of many soft-bodied animals is driven by the propagation of rhythmic waves of contraction and extension along the body. These waves are classically attributed to globally synchronized periodic patterns in the nervous system embodied in a central pattern generator (CPG). However, in many primitive organisms such as earthworms and insect larvae, the evidence for a CPG is weak, or e...
متن کاملParallel Evaluation of a Spatial Traversability Cost Function on GPU for Efficient Path Planning
A parallel version of the traditional grid based cost-to-go function generation algorithm used in robot path planning is introduced. The process takes advantage of the spatial layout of an occupancy grid by concurrently calculating the next wave front of grid cells usually evaluated sequentially in traditional dynamic programming algorithms. The algorithm offers an order of magnitude increase i...
متن کاملSupervised Traversability Learning for Robot Navigation
This work presents a machine learning method for terrain’s traversability classification. Stereo vision is used to provide the depth map of the scene. Then, a v-disparity image calculation and processing step extracts suitable features about the scene’s characteristics. The resulting data are used as input for the training of a support vector machine (SVM). The evaluation of the traversability ...
