Contact Detection

Contact detection is a critical task in the legged locomotion of robots, aiming to identify the contact status between the robot and the environment in real-time through sensor data. The goal of this task is to enhance the stability and adaptability of the robot, ensuring it can accurately perceive and respond to changes in contact while navigating complex terrains, thereby optimizing gait control and path planning. The application value of contact detection lies in improving the robot's autonomous navigation capabilities in dynamic environments, reducing the risk of unexpected falls and damage, and enhancing overall performance and reliability.
