ICRA’20 Presentation LQR-Assisted Whole-Body Control of a Wheeled Bipedal Robot with Kinematic Loops

This video presents “LQR-Assisted Whole-Body Control of a Wheeled Bipedal Robot with Kinematic Loops“ published in the IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters (RA-L) and presented at the virtual 2020 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), Paris, France. Abstract — We present a hierarchical whole-body controller leveraging the full rigid body dynamics of the wheeled bipedal robot Ascento. We derive closed-form expressions for the dynamics of its kinematic loops in a way that readily g
