A method for modeling a roadway and a method for recognizing lane markers based on the modeling method. The method for recognizing lane markers of roadway for a vehicle by getting image information about the roadway and information about the speed and steering angle using a camera and a sensor attached to the vehicle, includes the steps of modeling the actual roadway on which the vehicle travels, as a structure having a plurality of rectangular plates linked to each other. The modeled plates are overlayed onto the image information about the actual roadway, photographed by the camera, pixels forming the lane markers are extracted, and linear lane marker information is then obtained from the pixels forming the land markers. Then, the linear lane marker information is overlayed onto the modeled plates to recalculate lane marker information using the plates as a frame, and predetermined limitations of the features of the lane markers are applied to the plates onto which the linear lane marker information has been overlayed, to optimize the lane marker information. Then, the roadway on which the vehicle is traveling, is remodeled using the optimized lane marker information, the information about the speed and steering angle of the vehicle measured by the sensor, and the information about the modeled plates, and the position and orientation of the remodeled plates are calculated. Therefore, roadway recognition can be easily achieved using a modeled structure of the roadway, in which a plurality of rectangular plates are linked. Also, the model roadway is repeatedly mapped onto the actual roadway image, so that reliability in recognition of roadway increases.

The knot point which is the angle command of the joint portion of each of the legs to perform the next step is compensated for based on the COM, and the compensated desired knot point is smoothly connected using the spline curve such that the robot walks similar to a human. In addition, in order to maintain balance while walking, the angle of the joint portion of the intermediate point of the current step is fed back and the knot point of the next step is predicted and adjusted, such that the robot stably and smoothly walks.

A finite state machine (FSM)-based biped robot, to which a limit cycle is applied to balance the robot right and left on a two-dimensional space, and a method of controlling balance of the robot. In order to balance an FSM-based biped robot right and left on a two-dimensional space, control angles to balance the robot according to states of the FSM-based biped robot are set. The range of the control angles is restricted to reduce the maximum right and left moving distance of the biped robot and thus to reduce the maximum right and left moving velocity of the biped robot, thereby reducing the sum total of the moments of the biped robot and thus allowing the ankles of the biped robot to balance the biped robot to be controlled, and causing the soles of the feet of the biped robot to parallel contact the ground.

A walking control apparatus and method of a robot. The walking control method include confirming a swing leg and a support leg by judging a walking state of the robot when a walking velocity of the robot and a walking command are received by the robot, generating reference pitch knot points of a hip joint unit of the swing leg based on the walking state and the walking velocity of the robot, generating a target pitch angle trajectory of the hip joint unit of the swing leg using the reference pitch knot points, calculating torques tracking the target pitch angle trajectory, and outputting the torques to the hip joint unit of the swing leg to control the walking velocity of the robot. The walking velocity of the robot is rapidly and easily changed by adjusting at least one of a step length and a step time.
