Design and development of sit-to-stand trajectory and control of humanoid robot

Sitting position is an important feature in a humanoid robotic system as it is more stable when compared to standing position, resulting in less energy consumption since no actuator is needed to stabilize the robot. Sitting is crucial especially for humanoid robot in security and domestic robotics f...

description Sitting position is an important feature in a humanoid robotic system as it is more stable when compared to standing position, resulting in less energy consumption since no actuator is needed to stabilize the robot.
