Efficient PID Controller based Hexapod Wall Following Robot

This paper presents a design of wall followingbehaviour for hexapod robot based on PID controller. PIDcontroller is proposed here because of its ability to controlmany cases of non-linear systems. In this case, we proposed aPID controller to improve the speed and stability of hexapodrobot movement while following the wall. In this paper, PIDcontroller is used to control the robot legs, by adjusting thevalue of swing angle during forward or backward movement tomaintain the distance between the robot and the wall. Theexperimental result was verified by implementing the proposedcontrol method into actual prototype of hexapod robot

ANALYSIS OF KINEMATIC FOR LEGS OF A HEXAPOD USING DENAVIT-HARTENBERG CONVENTION

The headway of manipulator robots makes the development of a hexapod quite fast. Unfortunately, a hexapod is unstable to moving in a regular movement with some values added to programming algorithms. Various techniques implemented yet to the algorithms, like entering the degree values of each servo. However, to simplify the implementation of the algorithms, need some equations. This paper offered a hexapod control system based on Arduino that using Denavit-Hartenberg parameters to produce the equations. Various experiments have performed. Based on the experiments the offered system able to simplify the programming algorithms
