Popis: This paper proposes an effective framework to control humanoid-ground physical interaction for balance. The key concept is to control both humanoid robot linear and angular momenta, which are computed by the whole body kinematics. We firstly determine the ground reaction force (GRF) according to the momenta and then distribute the GRF to the two feet. After determining the foot GRFs, we calculate the joint torques to realize the foot GRFs. Herein, we present an effective method to set the appropriate foot GRFs and transform these forces into full-body joint torques. It operates as a force control process. The joint redundancy is solved by optimizations and constraints. Besides, we modify the classical contact model for the legged robot system. The modified contact model can provide the scientifical ground reaction force. We test the controller using our full-sized humanoid robot emulational platform, including compliant balance and squatting, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the method.
