Abstract
One of the ultimate dreams in robotics is to create life-like
robotics systems, such as a humanoid robot and an animal-like legged
robot. We choose to build a pet-type legged robot because we believe
that dog-like and cat-like legged robots have major potential for future
entertainment robotics markets for personal robots. However, a number of
challenges exist before any such robot can be fielded in the real world.
Robots have to be reasonably intelligent, maintain a certain level of
agility, and be able to engage in some collaborative behaviors. RoboCup
is an ideal challenge to foster robotics technologies for small personal
and mobile robotics system. In this paper, we present Sony's legged
robots system which entered RoboCup-98 Paris as a special exhibition
game
