Legged robots are well-suited for operation in challenging natural environments, such as
steep obstacles or vast gaps in the ground. Aside from difficult terrain, robots may also …

Humanoid robot with dual manipulators and dexterous hands shows great significance in
domestic, medical and service applications. They can provide companion, operation …

The under-actuated foot rotation that the heel of the stance leg lifts off the ground and the
body rotates around the stance toe is an important feature in human walking. However, it is …

To function autonomously in the physical world, humanoid robots need high-fidelity sensing
systems, especially for forces that cannot be easily modeled. Modeling forces in robot feet is …

This paper proposes a model predictive based approach for dynamic balance of a NAO H25
Humanoid robot. Due to the inherent mechanical properties of a humanoid robot, it has a …

This paper introduces a novel approach for enabling real-time imitation of human head
motion by a Nao robot, with a primary focus on elevating human-robot interactions. By using …

Bipedal robots, which mimic human or animal motion, are expected to perform numerous
tasks, such as delivering healthcare, conducting search and rescue missions in dangerous …

This paper presents a novel method for smaller-sized humanoid robots to self-calibrate their
foot force sensors. The method consists of two steps: 1. The robot is commanded to move …

For the situation of the robot's foot soles rotating around their edges, the current posture
balance control methods only used linear controllers and ignored the system's nonlinearity …

Push recovery and keeping balance in humanoid robots are two important issues which
ensure that robot can perform the imitation procedure and can be readily integrated in any …
