Abstract :
This paper studies an optimal planning of falling motions of a human-sized humanoid robot to reduce the damage of the robot. We developed a human-sized robot HRP-2FX which has a simplified humanoid robot shape with seven d.o.f. and can emulate motions in the sagittal plane of a humanoid robot. An optimal control is applied to generate the falling motion of HRP-2FX to minimize a performance index, and the optimality has been verified by the experiments on HRP-2FX.
