Quadruped robots that individual researchers can build by themselves are crucial for expanding the scope of research due to their high scalability and customizability. These robots…
Learning of Balance Controller Considering Changes in Body State for Musculoskeletal Humanoids
Kento Kawaharazuka, Yoshimoto Ribayashi, Akihiro Miki +4
The musculoskeletal humanoid is difficult to modelize due to the flexibility and redundancy of its body, whose state can change over time, and so balance control of its legs is cha…
Hardware Design and Learning-Based Software Architecture of Musculoskeletal Wheeled Robot Musashi-W for Real-World Applications
Kento Kawaharazuka, Akihiro Miki, Masahiro Bando +6
Various musculoskeletal humanoids have been developed so far. While these humanoids have the advantage of their flexible and redundant bodies that mimic the human body, they are st…
Continuous Jumping of a Parallel Wire-Driven Monopedal Robot RAMIEL Using Reinforcement Learning
Kento Kawaharazuka, Temma Suzuki, Kei Okada +1
We have developed a parallel wire-driven monopedal robot, RAMIEL, which has both speed and power due to the parallel wire mechanism and a long acceleration distance. RAMIEL is capa…
SAQIEL: Ultra-Light and Safe Manipulator with Passive 3D Wire Alignment Mechanism
Temma Suzuki, Masahiro Bando, Kento Kawaharazuka +2
Improving the safety of collaborative manipulators necessitates the reduction of inertia in the moving part. Within this paper, we introduce a novel approach in the form of a passi…
Design Optimization of Wire Arrangement with Variable Relay Points in Numerical Simulation for Tendon-driven Robots
Kento Kawaharazuka, Shunnosuke Yoshimura, Temma Suzuki +2
One of the most important features of tendon-driven robots is the ease of wire arrangement and the degree of freedom it affords, enabling the construction of a body that satisfies…
