Optimal Control of Walkers with Parallel Actuation

  • 将闭环运动学约束融入最优控制,显式求解动力学
  • 降低峰值驱动需求,拓展有效工作范围
  • 适用于无串行近似模型的复杂机器人

具有闭链运动学结构的腿足机器人因更高的机动性和效率正日益普及。然而,现有运动规划方法多依赖于串行链近似,忽略了其特有的约束与动力学特性,导致运动性能不佳且难以适配多样化结构。本文提出一种全面的运动生成方法,将闭链运动学及其约束条件及其解析导数直接纳入最优控制问题中。该方法可利用闭链机构固有的非线性传动效应,降低峰值执行器负载,并扩展其有效工作范围。与以往方法不同,本框架无需串行近似,实现更精确高效的运动策略。我们还可为无串行链近似的复杂机器人生成运动轨迹。通过仿真与实验验证,在快速行走和爬楼梯等复杂任务中表现优越。该方法提升了现有闭链机器人的能力,并拓宽了未来运动学构型的设计空间。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Legged robots with closed-loop kinematic chains are increasingly prevalent due to their increased mobility and efficiency. Yet, most motion generation methods rely on serial-chain approximations, sidestepping their specific constraints and dynamics. This leads to suboptimal motions and limits the adaptability of these methods to diverse kinematic structures. We propose a comprehensive motion generation method that explicitly incorporates closed-loop kinematics and their associated constraints in an optimal control problem, integrating kinematic closure conditions and their analytical derivatives. This allows the solver to leverage the non-linear transmission effects inherent to closed-chain mechanisms, reducing peak actuator efforts and expanding their effective operating range. Unlike previous methods, our framework does not require serial approximations, enabling more accurate and efficient motion strategies. We also are able to generate the motion of more complex robots for which an approximate serial chain does not exist. We validate our approach through simulations and experiments, demonstrating superior performance in complex tasks such as rapid locomotion and stair negotiation. This method enhances the capabilities of current closed-loop robots and broadens the design space for future kinematic architectures.
