The development of balance controllers for legged robots with point feet remains a challenge when they have to traverse extremely constrained environments.
We present a balance controller that has the potential to achieve line walking for quadruped robots. Our initial experiments show the 90-kg robot HyQ balancing on two feet and recovering from external pushes, as well as some changes in posture achieved without losing balance.
