Feet sensors
 The strain gauges sensors esteem the Humanoid’s body
balance
 There are 4 strain gauges sensors on each foot. They
are used to…
 measure ground reaction forces
 calculate the location of the Center of Pressure (CoP)

Feet sensors – New solution 1
 Load Cell
 The load cell used piezoresistors sensors in
Wheatstone bridge
 The force sensor operates on the
principle that the resistance of
silicon implanted in the
piezoresistors will increase when
the resistors flex under an applied
force.

Feet sensors – New solution 2
 The linear variable differential transformer (LVDT)
 The transformer has three solenoidal coils
placed end-to-end around a tube. The
centre coil is the primary, and the two outer
coils are secondaries.
 A cylindrical ferromagnetic core, attached
to the object whose position is to be
measured, slides along the axis of the tube.
As the core moves, these mutual
inductances change, causing the voltages
induced in the secondaries to change.
 The coils are connected in reverse series,
so that the output voltage is the difference
between the two secondary voltages.

Feet sensors – New solution 3
 Capacitive sensors
 Capacitive sensors measure the distance between two plates
via their capacitive effect

Feet sensors – New solution 4
 The pressure linear potentiometer
 Implementation in Sony’s SDR-4X and suspected in
QRIO
 There are 4 force sensors in the
foot sole. The sensors are
specially designed diaphragm type
sensor. The measurable range is
0~5 kg and the resolution is 10g.

Feet sensors – New solution 5
 The Multi-Axis Force/Torque Sensor system
measures all six components of force and torque
 Strain gauge sensor is attached
to each measurement beam and
each beam measures only one
component of translational force.

Feet sensors – New solution 5
 Honda’s ASIMO utilizes six-axis force sensors in
each foot of the robot.
 These sensors measure forces and moments in all
three directions as seen at the ankle.

Accelerometer/Inclinometer
 The Accelerometer/Inclinometer used are
ADXL202E (Analog Devices).
 The ADXL202E will measure accelerations with a fullscale range of ±2 g.
 The ADXL202E can measure both dynamic acceleration
(e.g., vibration) and static acceleration (e.g., gravity).
When the accelerometer is
oriented so both its X and Y
axes are parallel to the
earth’s surface it can be
used as a two axis tilt sensor
with a roll and a pitch axis.
Pitch  ASIN ( Ax / 1g )
Roll  ASIN ( Ay / 1g )

Gyroscope
 Piezoelectric Vibrating Gyroscopes
 The gyroscopes is an angular velocity sensor that
uses the phenomenon of Coriolis force, which is
generated when a rotational angular velocity is
applied to the vibrator.

 Electronic Compasses
 Two-axis magnetic compasses measure the horizontal vector
components of the earth's magnetic field using two sensor
elements in the horizontal plane but orthogonal to each
other.
