Locomotion Control of a Quadruped robot with sensory feedback
Simulation of a galloping gait. Red feet indicate a contact with the ground.
Heading Control of a Quadruped robot
During this simulation the robot has the task to follow a vertical line of equation x=1 for the first 20 second and then it tries to follow a new line of equation x=2. This simulation was performed adopting the steering control with equation "gamma = -Kd*d + Kh*(theta_actual - theta_desired)" with Kd = 15 and Kh = 15.
Heading Control of a Quadruped robot
Kd = 15 and Kh = 10. An overshoot in trajectory can be noticed.
Heading Control of a Quadruped robot
Kd = 10 and Kh = 15 that revealed to be the best solution among the three set of couple values.
