Abstract

The present invention may provide a method of generating a walking pattern for a humanoid robot. The method of generating the walking pattern for the humanoid includes determining a position of a next Zero Moment Point (ZMP) along a moving direction of the humanoid robot, obtaining a first condition for generating a walking pattern based on the determined ZMP by using a periodic step module, generating trajectories of a ZMP and a Center of Mass (CoM) in an initial step based on the first condition and an initial value obtained from an initial state of the humanoid robot by using a transient step module, generating trajectories of a ZMP and a CoM in a steady step based on the ZMP of two steps by using a steady step module, and generating trajectories of a ZMP and a CoM in a final step by using the transient step module.
