Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

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.

💡 Hint: Think about how feedback loops work in balance.

Challenge 2 Hard

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.

💡 Hint: Contemplate how different sensors work together.
