Abstract:Hexapod bionic robot has been widely used because of its flexibility, reliability and adaptability. Aiming at hexapod bionic patrol robot,the general system design and implementation methods are explored from the structural design, gait planning, system simulation and physical construction and so on.Firstly, the multi-joint mechanical structure of hexapod bionic robot is designed, and the quantitative modeling method of this kind of system is given. Then the system stability and typical gait planning are analyzed quantitatively by using the method of gravity center dependent trigonometric gait planning. Subsequently, on this basis, the kinematics model of the robot is established based on the standard D-H parameter method and the straight and smooth motion of the hexapod robot is realized through simulation. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed structure and gait planning method are verified by the physical test of the hexapod bionic patrol robot.
