Abstract: A motion control method, a robot controller, and a computer readable storage medium are provided. The method includes: calculating an inverse Jacobian matrix of a whole-body generalized coordinate vector at a current time relative to an actual task space vector of a humanoid robot; calculating a target generalized coordinate vector corresponding to a to-be-executed task space vector at a current moment by combining an actual task space vector and the to-be-executed task space vector into a null space of the inverse Jacobian matrix according to preset position constraint(s) corresponding to the whole-body generalized coordinate vector; and controlling a motion state of the humanoid robot according to the target generalized coordinate vector. In this manner, the motion of the humanoid robot is optimized as a whole to achieve the purpose of controlling the humanoid robot to avoid the limits of the motion of joints.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an action imitation method as well as a robot and a computer readable storage medium using the same. The method includes: collecting a plurality of action images of a to-be-imitated object; processing the action images through a pre-trained convolutional neural network to obtain a position coordinate set of position coordinates of a plurality of key points of each of the action images; calculating a rotational angle of each of the linkages of the to-be-imitated object based on the position coordinate sets of the action images; and controlling a robot to move according to the rotational angle of each of the linkages of the to-be-imitated object. In the above-mentioned manner, the rotational angle of each linkage of the to-be-imitated object can be obtained by just analyzing and processing the images collected by an ordinary camera without the help of high-precision depth camera.
