Abstract

Generally, hierarchical control for walking robots Is very difficult in real time. Thus, autonomous distributed control structures have become the center of attention. In this paper, we verify our proposed distributed controller by experiments of a quadruped walking robot. We have already ensured validity of our distributed controller by some computer simulations. The experimental results show that the controller has enough property to synchronize robots' legs.
