Humanoid loco-manipulation controller
HRP2001-LMC-Wheelbarrow-cut-20230111.mp4
LocomanipController-PushCartWaypoint-20221227.mp4
- Completely open source! (controller framework: mc_rtc, simulator: Choreonoid, sample robot model: JVRC1)
- Accepts commands for trajectory and velocity of a loco-manipulation object.
- Considers object manipulation forces on the hands in the balance control during loco-manipulation.
- Automated management with CI: Dynamics simulation is run on CI to verify loco-manipulation.
This controller is a simple extension of BaselineWalkingController for loco-manipulation.
For more information on walking control, see BaselineWalkingController.
For more information on the balance control in loco-manipulation considering object manipulation forces, please see the following paper:

- Compiler supporting C++17
- Tested with
Ubuntu 20.04 / ROS NoeticandUbuntu 18.04 / ROS Melodic
