Beschreibung (in English)

Humanoid robots are typically bipedal, autonomous robots that mimic the shape of the human body and that are particularly designed to cope with the demanding challenges that arise in human-centered environments (e.g. human-machine interaction).

In contrast to traditional autonomous robots where the control of the robot is nowadays well understood and where topics such as self-localization or autonomous map-generation are state-of-the-art, the limb control of humanoid robots imposes dramatic problems that are still, after years of research, barely solved. These control problems mainly arise from the many degrees of freedom which the human brain seems to control so effortlessly. Hence, new biologically-inspired control approaches are developed right now and compared to the performance of classical controllers. Time will tell whether these promising approaches will bring the anticipated breakthrough.
