This paper proposes a hexapod robot posture control method for rugged terrain to solve the problem of difficulty in realizing the posture control of a foot robot in rough terrain. The walking gait and original position of a six-legged robot is planned, and the Layer Identification of Tracking (LIT) strategy is developed to enable the robot to distinguish mild rugged terrain and severe rugged terrains automatically. The virtual suspension dynamic model is established. In mild rugged terrain, the posture maintenance strategy is adopted to keep the stability of the torso. In severe rugged terrain, the posture adjustment strategy is adopted to ensure the leg workspace and make it more widely adapt to the changing terrain, and a gravity center position adjustment method based on foot force distribution is designed to use foot force as feedback to control the position and attitude. The experiment of posture control in rough terrain and climbing experiment in the ladder terrain shows that the hexapod robot has good posture maintenance and posture adjustment effects when traversing complex terrain through the posture maintenance strategy and the posture adjustment strategy. Combined with the terrain identification method based on LIT, the hexapod robot can successfully climb the ladder terrain through the identification of the changing ladder terrain, and the movement of the posture adjustment process is stable.

This article describes the proposed force-based walking method for hydraulically driven hexapod robot named COMET-IV, to walk on the large scale rough terrain. The trajectory is designed where foot step motion for each leg is decided by vertical force on the foot that is calculated from cylinder torque of thigh and shank. This proposed walking trajectory is established with compliant control strategy, which consists of force control based on position range from the trajectory motion signal. This force controller is dynamically control ON/OFF by proposed decision algorithms that derived from the changes of kinematic motion of the trajectory itself. In addition logical attitude (body) control is designed as a part of the decision control module that makes a pre-calculation of decision making based on leg sequence changes. For more stability dynamic swings raising control is derived from trajectory equations to perform a different degree of swing rising for each leg when the robot stepping on the different level of terrain. All proposed controllers are verified in the COMET-IV actual system with walking on the designed rough terrain platform consists of random levels of hard bricks and rubber pads.
