Abstract
The execution of arbitrary trajectories in rough terrains by legged robots is a task that involves a complex system of positioning, control and synchronization. In this work, a new geometric approach to obtain the instant pose of each paw was developed. For this purpose, spherical surfaces are used as workspace boundaries of support paws, also as the route for the paws in balance. It was used the neurocomputational approach, named Scheduling by Multiple Edge Reversal (SMER), to derive the paws phase and generate the gait rhythmic patterns. The methodology applied to the robot movement consists of modeling the kinematics of a hexapod robot in order to follow curved, straight and combined trajectories in a tripod gait pattern. Finally, a new feasible motion model is presented as the main result in this work.
