摘要:This paper proposes an impedance control scheme used on humanoid robots for stability maintenance when the robot is expected to carry out fast manipulatory tasks. We take table tennis playing as an example to study this issue. The fast acceleration required by table tennis rallying will result in an unknown large reaction force on the robot, causing the body to swing back and forth in an oscillating motion and the foot to lose complete contact with the ground. To improve the stability during fast manipulation and in order to resist disturbances due to the reaction force, we introduce impedance control to absorb the impact and decrease the amplitude of body swinging. The system's adjusting time is also reduced and the oscillations are eliminated according to the experimental results, which show the effectiveness of our scheme.
