Abstract
Fuzzy logic has features that are of particular interest in the area of mobile robotics that allow a system to operate smoothly in light of some uncertainty and imprecision. This paper presents a fuzzy logic controller for a hexapod robot that is able to move freely on an uneven surface environment without tipping over. The robot has the feel of the surface it´s on through touch sensors located at the bottom of each of the six legs.
