Humanoid robotic balancing on dynamic terrain, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada

Highlights of my Master of Science thesis research project on active humanoid robotic balancing on dynamic terrain.

This video shows the four control algorithms implemented (PID, Fuzzy Logic, two different-sized Always-On Artificial Neural Networks) used in conjunction with two control policies: Do The Shake (where the robot attempts to keep the deck level at all times) and Let's Sway (where the robot induces a rhythmic oscillation to the deck).

This video was filmed at home in June of 2015 using Jimmy, one of the University of Manitoba's DARwIn-OP robots.
