“…For the dynamic balance of a biped robot, several models have been introduced as indicators of whether the current state is balanced or falling. The prevalent approaches are based on the virtual foot‐rotation point on the ground (Goswami, 1999), the ability of a biped system to come to a stop after taking maximum N steps (Koolen, De Boer, Rebula, Goswami, & Pratt, 2012), or a contact‐specific partition of the COM state space (position and velocity) (Mummolo, Peng, Gonzalez, & Kim, 2018). Moreover, we may be able to apply dynamic mechanical models and evaluation indices such as virtual time‐to‐contact approaches, which quantify the temporal proximity to the stability boundary (Dutt‐Mazumder, Challis, & Newell, 2016; Kilby et al, 2014).…”
