A Flexible MATLAB/Simulink Simulator for Robotic Floating-base Systems in Contact with the Ground
Nuno Guedelha, Venus Pasandi, Giuseppe L'Erario +2
Physics simulators are widely used in robotics fields, from mechanical design to dynamic simulation, and controller design. This paper presents an open-source MATLAB/Simulink simul…
Whole-Body Human Kinematics Estimation using Dynamical Inverse Kinematics and Contact-Aided Lie Group Kalman Filter
Prashanth Ramadoss, Lorenzo Rapetti, Yeshasvi Tirupachuri +6
Full-body motion estimation of a human through wearable sensing technologies is challenging in the absence of position sensors. This paper contributes to the development of a model…
An Experimental Comparison of Floating Base Estimators for Humanoid Robots with Flat Feet
Prashanth Ramadoss, Stefano Dafarra, Silvio Traversaro +1
Extended Kalman filtering is a common approach to achieve floating base estimation of a humanoid robot. These filters rely on measurements from an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) a…
Efficient Geometric Linearization of Moving-Base Rigid Robot Dynamics
Martijn Bos, Silvio Traversaro, Daniele Pucci +1
The linearization of the equations of motion of a robotics system about a given state-input trajectory, including a controlled equilibrium state, is a valuable tool for model-based…
Online Non-linear Centroidal MPC for Humanoid Robot Locomotion with Step Adjustment
Giulio Romualdi, Stefano Dafarra, Giuseppe L'Erario +3
This paper presents a Non-Linear Model Predictive Controller for humanoid robot locomotion with online step adjustment capabilities. The proposed controller considers the Centroida…
DILIGENT-KIO: A Proprioceptive Base Estimator for Humanoid Robots using Extended Kalman Filtering on Matrix Lie Groups
Prashanth Ramadoss, Giulio Romualdi, Stefano Dafarra +3
This paper presents a contact-aided inertial-kinematic floating base estimation for humanoid robots considering an evolution of the state and observations over matrix Lie groups. T…
