Description

Quiet gait and trot gait handoff algorithms applied to four-leg bionic robot
Technical field
The present invention relates to the algorithm switched between a kind of quiet gait and trot gait for four-leg bionic robot, Belong to field of artificial intelligence.
Background technique
At this stage, quadruped robot gradually moves towards outdoor from indoor, high dynamic, environmental suitability and heavy load ability It significantly improves.In order to complete Given task, robot is typically all the motor pattern for using certain single, and this significantly reduces machines Device people is to the adaptability of various different complex environments, and quadruped mammal can carry out different motion mode according to varying environment Switching.Therefore, in order to improve the environmental suitability of robot, need to study the unified life of the various different motion modes of robot At method and mutual steady switchover policy.
In addition, energy utilization efficiency is also an important index to robot, robot will complete complexity, interminable Business, it is necessary to have higher energy utilization efficiency.Therefore, in the motion control of robot, it is necessary to improve the energy of robot Utilization efficiency carries out the optimization of the various motor pattern parameters of robot, and this is also required to research robot in different motion mode Between switchover policy.For example, in order to reduce energy consumption, the quadruped mammals such as horse, dog can be according to oneself movement velocity Difference, carry out the switching between different gaits;Bionical based on biology, more scholar has carried out robot gait switching Research work.
Currently, there are mainly two types of the control methods of gait conversion: being based on central pattern generator (cpg) (central pattern Generator, CPG) the biology induction ambulation control method and design method based on oint motion trajectory.It delivers within 2009 In " Intelligent Service Robotics " (" intellect service robot technology ") 105-112 pages of " Gait planning for quadruped robot based on dynamic stability:landing accordance Ratio " (" the quadruped robot gait planning based on dynamic stability: proportionally falling foot ") be published in 2007 475-490 pages of " International Journal of Robotics Research " (" international robot research magazine ") 《Adaptive Dynamic Walking of a Quadruped Robot on Natural Ground Based on Biological Concepts " (" the adaptive dynamic row of four-leg bionic robot based on biology thought in the natural environment Walk ") using CPG realize the gait control to four-leg bionic robot;It is published in " Robotics& Autonomous within 2011 Systems " " Gait transition and modulation in 620-634 pages of (" robotics and autonomous system ") A quadruped robot:A brainstem-like modulation approach " (" four-leg bionic robot gait turns Change and adjust: a kind of imitative brain stem method of adjustment ") and it is published in " Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics " (" IEEE robotics and bionics international conference collection of thesis ") " the Gait generation and transitions of quadruped robot based on of page 19 to 24 Wilson-Cowan weakly neural networks " (" the four-leg bionic machine based on the weak neural network of Wilson-Cowan Device people's gait generate and switching ") in using CPG realize gait conversion.
Above-mentioned CPG method mainly constructs a differential equation controller, adjusts gait using the change of input feedback The output of curve, so by curve of output be mapped to robot hip joint or entire leg section, realize the gait of robot Switching.Under the premise of robot stabilization condition guarantees, the gait that robot may be implemented in CPG method changes, still, due to Do not account for robot stabilization and gait switching efficiency, merely with CPG method realize switching condition method there are biggish Limitation;In addition, bio-robot is made of machinery, electrical control, itself intrinsic constraint has been doomed it can not be such as animal As have itself perfect feedback mechanism.
Design method based on oint motion trajectory is that the step of robot is realized using the change of robot gait parameter The adjustment of state switching and gait, for example, being published in the " Gait of 29-37 pages of " China Mechanical Engineering journal: English edition " for 2012 Definition and Successive Gait-transition Method Based on Energy Consumption For a Quadruped " (" definition of gait based on quadruped robot energy consumption and continuous gait generation method ") research, Various gaits are introduced first, and provides the relationship and speed of phase difference and duty ratio and oxygen in gait respectively and consumes Relationship, it is believed that every kind of gait has an optimal velocity, and average oxygen consumption reaches minimum under this speed, thus from reason Joined when robot speed increases to a certain extent using gait by above realizing based on the smallest gait switching of energy consumption Several changes realizes the switching of different gaits.
In recent years, to getting up the research of gait switching more, but there is presently no it is fairly perfect, comprehensively consider machine Stability, rate smoothing switching and the method that guarantees minimum switching time of the people in gait handoff procedure.It is published within 2013 " IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics " (" IEEE robotics and imitative It is raw to learn international conference collection of thesis ") 2535-2539 pages of " Gait transition of quadruped robot using Rhythm control and stability analysis " (" with the robot gait switching of rhythm detection and stability Analysis ") be published within 2014 2171-2176 pages of " Ifac Proceedings Volumes " (" IFAC proceeding ") Paper " Automated Transitions Between Walking and Running in Legged Robots " (" foot Formula robot ambulation and the automatic switchover run ") in complete gait using inverted pendulum model and stiffness spring and switch, 2014 Indicated in one Master's thesis " four-leg bionic Biped Robot Control and switchover policy are analyzed " switching of walk-trot gait with The influence of velocity variations, but the specific implementation procedure of switching is not provided, text " Hysteresis in gait transition induced by changing waist joint stiffness of a quadruped robot driven by Nonlinear oscillators with phase resetting " in using duty ratio change method complete gait cut It changes, literary " A Gait-Transition Method for a Quadruped Walking Robot " proposes a kind of switching method Stop the robot walking at the certain point for meeting condition, to start a kind of lower gait, but all not in view of step The stability as caused by the change in step-length and period and flatness problem in state switching;"A gait transition Algorithm based on hybrid walking gait for a quadruped walking robot " first by between Quiet gait of having a rest is improved to non-batch quiet gait, the process that switching is completed under a kind of non-batch state is then provided, by handoff procedure It is divided into used time identical three parts, does not consider the problems of speed transition;"Biologically inspired gait Transition control for a quadruped walking robot " in have proposed than more complete walk-to- Trot handover scheme, but receive handover information to execute switching point it is longer there are the time difference, if quiet gait state does not meet switching item Part need to continue to run the original state until meeting provide two kinds of switch instances, so that gait switching efficiency is had a greatly reduced quality.
Robot during the motion, in order to improve environmental suitability and sport efficiency, generally, flatter landform using pair Trot gait (trot) at angle, and more rugged topography uses quiet gait (static walk, be abbreviated as walk).
The present invention studies above-mentioned most representational two kinds of gaits, explores the quiet gait of interval and walks to trotting The effective ways of state switching.So that robot in gait handoff procedure, completes the flat of gait under the premise of moving unbroken Sliding, stable switching, thus the environmental suitability for reducing energy consumption, improving robot.
Summary of the invention
For the quiet gait (static walk, be abbreviated as walk) of existing four-leg bionic robot interval to trotting Gait (trot) convert (walk-to-trot) there are the problem of, the present invention provides a kind of applied to four-leg bionic robot Quiet gait and trot gait handoff algorithms, the algorithm consider phase difference and switch speed simultaneously, and improving, gait switching is steady While qualitative flatness, shorten by the time difference receiving switching signal to switching, guarantees the steady of robot gait switching It is fixed efficient.

3. switching law
The adjustment of 3.1 rhythm and pace of moving things
For six kinds of different walk gait switching points, provide same three switching queues: switching queue 1 is adjustment weight Heart position;Switching queue 2 is adjustment DL1 (DL2);Switching queue 3 is adjustment DL2 (DL1).For switching queue 2 and 3, how It determines which queue is adjusted which diagonal leg, which state of trot gait is accessed, it then follows the diagonal leg in Fig. 4 is chosen Rule.The three phases of switching queue are specific as follows:
Switching queue 1: center of gravity is adjusted to center in left and right directions by centre of gravity adjustment, in the longitudinal direction, by center of gravity tune Two to the larger parapodum of x value (left side foot or right side foot) fall the direction foot point x center;
Switching queue 2: center of gravity accelerates to advance.It is put by the diagonal leg where the smallest foot of hip_x in four-footed as this stage Diagonal leg is moved, if being all minimum there are two foot hip_x, back leg is preferential.Such as: when switching at switching point 1, before right, behind the right side The hip_x of leg is-L'/2, and the diagonal leg 1 where selecting right rear leg is adjusted.When switching at switching point 2, then by The smallest right front leg of hip_x value come determine the leg being this time adjusted be diagonal leg 2.It moves forward in center of gravity apart from constant situation Under, so that the diagonal leg swung is become L'/2 relative to the hip_x of itself hip joint, and enter next stage;
Switching queue 3: center of gravity accelerates to advance.It controls another diagonal leg to swing forward, its hip_x is made to become L'/2.
Specific switching method at walk gait six different switching points is as follows:
