    Pre-print submitted to "Robotics and Autonomous Systems"We present a new framework for prioritized multi-task motion-force control of fully-actuated robots. This work is established on a careful review and comparison of the state of the art. Some control frameworks are not optimal, that is they do not find the optimal solution for the secondary tasks. Other frameworks are optimal, but they tackle the control problem at kinematic level, hence they neglect the robot dynamics and they do not allow for force control. Still other frameworks are optimal and consider force control, but they are computationally less efficient than ours. Our final claim is that, for fully-actuated robots, computing the operational-space inverse dynamics is equivalent to computing the inverse kinematics (at acceleration level) and then the joint-space inverse dynamics. Thanks to this fact, our control framework can efficiently compute the optimal solution by decoupling kinematics and dynamics of the robot. We take into account: motion and force control, soft and rigid contacts, free and constrained robots. Tests in simulation validate our control framework, comparing it with other state-of-the-art equivalent frameworks and showing remarkable improvements in optimality and efficiency

Nowadays the objectives of the robots are no longer restricted to the automaton in the industrial process but are changing into explorers for hazardous, harsh, uncooperative, and extreme environments. As these robots usually operate in dynamic and unstructured environments, they should be robust, adaptive, and reactive under various changing operation conditions. We propose online hierarchical optimization-based planning and control methodologies for a rescue robot to execute a given mission in such a highly unstructured environment. A large number of degrees of freedom is provided to robots in order to achieve diverse kinematic and dynamic tasks. However, accomplishing such multiple objectives renders on-line reactive motion planning and control problems more difficult to solve due to the incompatible tasks. To address this problem, we exploit a hierarchical structure to precisely resolve conflicts by creating a priority in which every task is achieved as much as possible according to the levels. In particular, we concentrate on the reasoning about the task regularization to ensure the convergence and robustness of a solution in the face of singularity. As robotic systems with real-time motion planners or controllers often execute unrehearsed missions, a desired task cannot always be driven to a singularity free configuration. We develop a generic solver for regularized hierarchical quadratic programming without resorting to any off-the-shelf QP solver to take advantage of the null-space projections for computational efficiency. Therefore, the underlying principles are thoroughly investigated. The robust optimal solution is obtained under both equality and inequality tasks or constraints while addressing all problems resulting from the regularization. Especially as a singular value decomposition centric approach is leveraged, all hierarchical solutions and Lagrange multipliers for properly handling the inequality constraints are analytically acquired in a recursive procedure. The proposed algorithm works fast enough to be used as a practical means of real-time control system, so that it can be used for online motion planning, motion control, and interaction force control in a single hierarchical optimization. Core system design concepts of the rescue robot are presented. The goals of the robot are to safely extract a patient and to dispose a dangerous object instead of humans. The upper body is designed humanoid in form with replaceable modularized dual arms. The lower body is featured with a hybrid tracked and legged mobile platform to simultaneously acquire versatile manipulability and all-terrain mobility. Thus, the robot can successfully execute a driving task, dangerous object manipulation, and casualty extraction missions by changing the pose and modularized equipments in an optimized manner. Throughout the dissertation, all proposed methods are validated through extensive numerical simulations and experimental tests. We highlight precisely how the rescue robot can execute a casualty extraction and a dangerous object disposal mission both in indoor and outdoor environments that none of the existing robots has performed.์ตœ๊ทผ์— ๋“ฑ์žฅํ•œ ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ์„ธ๋Œ€์˜ ๋กœ๋ด‡์€ ๊ธฐ์กด์—๋Š” ์ธ๊ฐ„๋งŒ์ด ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์—ˆ๋˜ ๋ณต์žกํ•œ ์ผ์„ ๋กœ๋ด‡ ๋˜ํ•œ ์ˆ˜ํ–‰ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Œ์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ์—ˆ๋‹ค. ํŠนํžˆ DARPA Robotics

    Integration of Riemannian Motion Policy and Whole-Body Control for Dynamic Legged Locomotion

    In this paper, we present a novel Riemannian Motion Policy (RMP)flow-based whole-body control framework for improved dynamic legged locomotion. RMPflow is a differential geometry-inspired algorithm for fusing multiple task-space policies (RMPs) into a configuration space policy in a geometrically consistent manner. RMP-based approaches are especially suited for designing simultaneous tracking and collision avoidance behaviors and have been successfully deployed on serial manipulators. However, one caveat of RMPflow is that it is designed with fully actuated systems in mind. In this work, we, for the first time, extend it to the domain of dynamic-legged systems, which have unforgiving under-actuation and limited control input. Thorough push recovery experiments are conducted in simulation to validate the overall framework. We show that expanding the valid stepping region with an RMP-based collision-avoidance swing leg controller improves balance robustness against external disturbances by up to 53%53\% compared to a baseline approach using a restricted stepping region. Furthermore, a point-foot biped robot is purpose-built for experimental studies of dynamic biped locomotion. A preliminary unassisted in-place stepping experiment is conducted to show the viability of the control framework and hardware

    Versatile Multi-Contact Planning and Control for Legged Loco-Manipulation

    Full text link
    Loco-manipulation planning skills are pivotal for expanding the utility of robots in everyday environments. These skills can be assessed based on a system's ability to coordinate complex holistic movements and multiple contact interactions when solving different tasks. However, existing approaches have been merely able to shape such behaviors with hand-crafted state machines, densely engineered rewards, or pre-recorded expert demonstrations. Here, we propose a minimally-guided framework that automatically discovers whole-body trajectories jointly with contact schedules for solving general loco-manipulation tasks in pre-modeled environments. The key insight is that multi-modal problems of this nature can be formulated and treated within the context of integrated Task and Motion Planning (TAMP). An effective bilevel search strategy is achieved by incorporating domain-specific rules and adequately combining the strengths of different planning techniques: trajectory optimization and informed graph search coupled with sampling-based planning. We showcase emergent behaviors for a quadrupedal mobile manipulator exploiting both prehensile and non-prehensile interactions to perform real-world tasks such as opening/closing heavy dishwashers and traversing spring-loaded doors. These behaviors are also deployed on the real system using a two-layer whole-body tracking controller

    Thermal Recovery of Multi-Limbed Robots with Electric Actuators

    The problem of finding thermally minimizing configurations of a humanoid robot to recover its actuators from unsafe thermal states is addressed. A first-order, data-driven, effort based, thermal model of the robots actuators is devised, which is used to predict future thermal states. Given this predictive capability, a map between configurations and future temperatures is formulated to find what configurations, subject to valid contact constraints, can be taken now to minimize future thermal states. Effectively, this approach is a realization of a contact-constrained thermal inverse-kinematics (IK) process. Experimental validation of the proposed approach is performed on the NASA Valkyrie robot hardware
