The Fuzzy Control Approach for a Quadruped Robot Guide Dog

In order to reach the free moving requirements of blind man, dogs are usually trained to guide, also as known as guide dogs. However, the number of guide dogs is much lower than actually requirements significantly. In order to improve this issue, the robot guide dogs are proposed. The quadruped design provides good movement for robot guide dogs. On the other hand, the architecture of four legs also leads to higher complexity in controlling. In this study, the fuzzy control approach is proposed to provide the better control performance for robot guide dogs than traditional approaches.
