VHIP balancing in Python
Python code for Biped Stabilization by Linear Feedback of the Variable-Height Inverted Pendulum Model.
The main script unrolls VHIP trajectories with different balance controllers and reproduces plots as in the paper:
This repository is a lighter implementation of the original script vhip_stabilization.py that was released with the paper.
Installation
The recommended way is to use Conda:
conda create -f environment.yaml
conda activate vhip_light
Alternatively, you can install all dependencies from PyPI:
pip install cvxpy ipython matplotlib qpsolvers scipy
Usage
python main.py
