1 Bipedal Locomotion on Small Feet Jessy Grizzle Elmer G. Gilbert Distinguished University Professor Levin Professor of Engineering ECE and ME Departments Pop Quiz for Tony Can you give the first name of either D Alembert or Lagrange? Jean le Rond d'alembert and Joseph Louis Lagrange What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow? What do you mean? An African or European swallow? Whose birthday am I unable to celebrate today? My wife s birthday! Bipedal Locomotion on Small Feet Jessy Grizzle Elmer G. Gilbert Distinguished University Professor Levin Professor of Engineering ECE and ME Departments Major Themes Walking may be easy for people, still challenging for robots! Control of balance on small feet enables agility and robustness on normal feet. The unreasonable effectiveness of geometry + nonlinear control + parameter optimization. From Simple More Complex From Not So Simple Very Complex Bipedal Aaron Ames 1

Fully actuated: dim u = dim q Fully actuated: dim u = dim q Common assumption, but dangerous. severe limitations on ankle torque (to prevent rotation of foot) 4

Fully actuated: dim u = dim q severe limitations on ankle torque (to prevent rotation of foot) ZMP, M. Vukobratovic (1968) Capture Point, Pratt et a. (2006) State of the Art: DRC 6 & 7 June 2015 State of the Art: DRC 6 & 7 June 2015 Degree of Actuation Degree of Actuation joint angles & velocities motor torques series elastic actuators Fully actuated: dim u = dim q Underactuated: dim u < dim q Passive Pivot Fully actuated: dim u = dim q Underactuated: dim u < dim q 5

Trajectory Tracking vs. Virtual Constraints Feedback Design Virtual constraints Design via parameter optimization Initial 3D experiments Trajector y Gait Generato r NL PID Cont. Physical Virtual Constraints Virtual constraints y = (variables to be controlled) (desired evolution) Gait phase or timing variable Feedback controller: y(t) 0 6

8 Geometric Interpretation Geometric Interpretation In general Hybrid Zero Dynamics Theorem: [TAC 2001, TAC 2009, Book] Can design surface such that Hybrid zero dynamics Hybrid zero dynamics dim 2(N-k) dim 2k Rendering Z hybrid invariant Rendering Z sufficiently rapidly attractive. Hybrid zero dynamics From invariance reset map is often expansive Design of the Periodic Orbit Computation and Orbit Design Adjust feedback gains to achieve attractivity of Z 8

9 Desired Evolution Constrained Optimization (standard) y = (variables to be controlled) (desired evolution) Design desired evolution Cost Function Free parameters to be chosen Integrate over Hybrid Zero Dynamics 2(N-k) dim Constrained Optimization (standard) Nonlinear-Hybrid Feedback Control Design desired evolution Cost Function Equality Constraints Swing leg impact at end of step Walking speed Periodicity or not Inequality Constraints Ground reaction force positive Friction coefficient < 0.6 Swing foot clearance Torque bounds Stability??? Choosing What to Control? Free Pivot For 1 DUA, STABILITY is INDEPENDENT of CHOICE of outputs! angular vs. Cartesian Otherwise (such as in 3D), choice matters. 9

10 3D: Output Choice Matters 3D: Output Choice Matters Swing leg Stance leg Robot Falls Sagittal Plane Frontal Plane 3D: Output Choice Matters 3D: Output Choice Matters Swing leg Stance leg Eigenvalues now have magnitude less than one Robot Walks Sagittal Plane Frontal Plane 3D: Output Choice Matters Choosing What to Control Eigenvalues have magnitude greater than one Systematic Selection of Outputs Robot Falls Kaveh Akbari Hamed Brian Buss CDC 2014; ADHS 2015; IJRR [to appear] 10

11 Systematic Selection of Outputs Parameterized family of controllers Periodic orbit: independent of parameters Seek parameter values giving (exp.) stability Periodic Orbit Orbit independent of parameter choice but changes the zero dynamics! Applies Much More Broadly Periodic Orbit Feedforward term so that orbit independent of parameter choice 11
