Question 5.
Given the importance of ZMP in dynamic walking, explain how you would design a control algorithm that keeps track of ZMP during a robot's gait.
Show hintHide hint
Think about how feedback loops work in balance.
Question 6.
Consider a scenario where a humanoid robot is traversing an uneven surface. Discuss how both IMUs and force-torque sensors contribute to maintaining stability in this environment.
