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.
