Cross Coupled Quadruped Robot Bounding with Leg Mass.
Masters thesis, Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad.
Abstract
Quadruped robots find application in military for load carrying, inspection of nuclear power plants and submarine, planetary explorations. The range and duration of these missions depend on the capability of the robot to be dynamically stable and run for many cycles.Moreover,
dynamically stable robots, unlike statically stable robots can tolerate departures of the centre of mass from the support polygon formed by the legs in contact with the ground .To achieve dynamic stability, the observation of control laws based on symmetry conditions led to the idea of physical cross coupling between legs.
