  • Patent number: 11890762
    Abstract: A method for detecting a ground attribute of a legged robot includes obtaining a collision audio of a foot of the legged robot with a ground; and detecting a workable level attribute of the ground in a working environment of the legged robot according to the collision audio. The sound of the collision between the foot of the robot and the ground is collected, and the workable level attribute of the ground in the working environment of the legged robot is detected based on the sound, so that the operable level attribute can be effectively used to control the legs of the legged robot. On the one hand, the motion noise of the legged robot can be reduced, and on the other hand, the power consumption of the legged robot can be reduced, thereby increasing its range of motion.
