ZMP Human Measure System

  • Conference paper
Climbing and Walking Robots

Abstract

This paper describes a measuring system to calculate the ZMP in humans. The main goal is to do several tests with a hardware measure system in order to analyze whether it will be possible to implement it in the Rh-0 humanoid robot. The humanoid robot Rh-0 under development at the Robotics Lab of the University Carlos III of Madrid, will have a movement control system which will measure its ZMP on-line. First of all, several tests of these possible control systems on people have been developed, measuring their ZMP while they are walking on a plane floor.
