FP7 Projet

FlexibleRobotBehav

• Title: FlexibleRobotBehavior

• Type: FP7-PEOPLE-2007-4-1-IOF

• Instrument: Marie Curie International Outgoing Fellowships for Career Development (IOF)

• Duration: June 2008 - May 2011

• Coordinator: INRIA (France)

• Others partners: Japanese Advanced Institute for Science and Technology (AIST)

• Abstract: The main objective of this research and training project is to enhance the algorithms and control laws of existing humanoid robots in order to obtain a walking behavior versatile and safe enough to be integrated into higher level tasks such as manipulation, vision, tele-operation, interaction with humans, which all require a strong capacity to face unforeseen events in an efficient way. And the objective is to solve this problem with a solution general enough to be applied also to the case of manipulator robots.
