Posture Adjustment for Quadruped Robot Trotting on a Slope

The ingenious design and the coordinated movement among different legs make the legged robots have excellent adaptability on complex terrains, which is an advantage that wheeled and track vehicles do not have.Slope is one of the most basic natural terrains.Unlike the flat terrain, the possibility of feet slipping increases when the quadruped robots walk on a steep slope, whereupon the motion stability decreases, which makes it more difficult to calculate the toes landing location, generate the leg joints control signals, and control the robots posture.In the natural environment, animals achieve better motion stability and lower energy cost while walking on a slope by adjusting motion posture.This motivates researchers to work on the robots posture-adjustment.
