Abstract
- This research concentrates on enhancing the navigational capabilities of Northeastern Universitys Husky, a multi-modal quadrupedal robot, that can integrate posture manipulation and thrust vectoring, to traverse through narrow pathways such as walking over pipes and slacklining. The Husky is outfitted with thrusters designed to stabilize its body during dynamic walking over these narrow paths. The project involves modeling the robot using the HROM (Husky Reduced Order Model) and developing an optimal control framework. This framework is based on polynomial approximation of the HROM and a collocation approach to derive optimal thruster commands necessary for achieving dynamic walking on narrow paths. The effectiveness of the modeling and control design approach is validated through simulations conducted using Matlab.<br />Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2312.12586
