In legged locomotion, the projection of the robot’s Center of Mass (CoM) being inside the convex hull of the contact points is a commonly accepted sufficient condition to achieve static balancing. However, some of these configurations cannot be realized because joint-torques required to sustain them would be above their limits (actuation limits). In this manuscript, we rule out such configurations and define the Feasible Region, a revisited support region that guarantees both global static stability in the sense of tipover and slippage avoidance and of existence of a set of joint-torques that are able to sustain the robot’s body weight. We show that the feasible region can be employed for the selection of feasible footholds and Center of Mass (CoM) trajectories to achieve static locomotion on rough terrains, also in presence of load-intensive tasks. Key results of our approach include the efficiency in the computation of the feasible region thanks to an Iterative Projection algorithm. This allowed us to carry out successful experiments on the HyQ robot, that, was able to negotiate obstacles of moderate dimensions while carrying an extra 10kg payload. This work is currently under review.
