One of the challenges in humanoid robotics is motion control. Interacting with humans requires impedance control algorithms, as well as tackling the problem of the closed kinematic chains which occur when both feet touch the ground. However, pure impedance control for totally autonomous robots is difficult to realize, as this algorithm needs very precise sensors for force and speed of the actuated parts, as well as very high sampling rates for the controller input signals. Both requirements lead to a complex and heavy weight design, which makes up for heavy machines unusable in RoboCup Soccer competitions.
A lightweight motor controller was developed that can be used for admittance and impedance control as well as for model predictive control algorithms to further improve the gait of the robot.
Die Erfindung betrifft einen elektromotorischen Aktor, insbesondere für einen mobilen Roboter, mit einem geschalteten, zylindrischen Linearreluktanzmotor-Antrieb (21), bestehend aus einem hohlzylindrischen Stator (23), welcher am Innenumfang zwischen umlaufenden Statorzähnen (23a) vorgesehene umlaufende Nuten (23b) aufweist, in welchen Motorwicklungen (27a, 27b, 27c, 27’a, 27’b, 27’c) angeordnet sind, und einem innerhalb des Stators (23) koaxial vorgesehenen zylindrischen oder hohlzylindrischen Translator (25) mit am Außenumfang vorgesehenen, umlaufenden Translatorzähnen (25a), wobei der Stator (23) im Bereich der Statorzähne (23a) und der Translator (25) im Bereich der Translatorzähne (25a) aus einem ferromagnetischen Material bestehen. Erfindungsgemäß ist der Translator (25) über eine mechanische Vorrichtung zur Speicherung und Abgabe von kinetischer Energie (31) fest oder nur für einen vorbestimmten Bereich eines Bewegungsbereichs des Translators (25) mit dem Stator (25) gekoppelt.
This paper describes the new Sweaty humanoid adult size robot trying to qualify for the RoboCup 2014 adult size humanoid competition. The robot is built from scratch to eventually allow it to run. One characteristic is that to prevent the motors from overheating, water evaporation is used for cooling. The robot is literally sweating which has given it its name. Another characteristic is, that the motors are not directly connected to the frame but by means of beams. This allows a variable transmission ratio depending on the angle.
This paper describes the new Sweaty II humanoid adult size robot trying to qualify for the RoboCup 2016 adult size humanoid competition. Based on experiences during RoboCup 2014, the Sweaty robot has been completely redesigned to a new robot Sweaty II. A major change is the use of linear actuators for the legs. Another characteristic is its indirect actuation by means of rods. This allows a variable transmission ratio depending on the angle of a joint.
This paper describes the Sweaty II humanoid adult size robot trying to qualify for the RoboCup 2017 adult size humanoid competition. Sweaty came 2nd in RoboCup 2016 adult size league. The paper describes the main characteristics of Sweaty that made this success possible, and improvements that have been made or are planned to be implemented for RoboCup 2017.
This paper describes the Sweaty II humanoid adult size robot trying to qualify for the RoboCup 2018 adult size humanoid competition. Sweaty came 2nd in RoboCup 2017 adult size league. The main characteristics of Sweaty are described in the Team Description Paper 2017. The improvements that have been made or are planned to be implemented for RoboCup 2018 are described in this paper.
