Control of dynamically stable robot based on fault-state fall property and related technology

Abstract

A method in accordance with at least some embodiments of the present technology includes generating a first motion command for changing a pose of a mobile robot. This occurs via a computer system operably associated with the mobile robot. The method further includes determining an indication of a fault-state fall property of the mobile robot corresponding to the first motion command. The indication is based at least partially on joint-encoder data and inclinometer data from the mobile robot. The method still further includes generating a second motion command for changing the pose of the mobile robot based at least partially on the indication. The method also includes executing movement of the mobile robot corresponding to the second motion command. Executing this movement occurs via an actuator of the mobile robot and causes the fault-state fall property to move toward a target range.
