A legged robot and a legged robot walking control method are disclosed,
which enable stable walking without force sensors on leg tips. A legged
robot of the present invention comprises a torso, a leg link, which is
swingably connected to the torso, storing means 210 for storing leg tip
gait data describing a time-series change in a target leg tip motion,
storing means 210 for storing torso gait data describing a time-series
change in a target torso motion, which realizes a target ZMP following
the change in the target leg tip motion, torso motion detection means
218, 220 for detecting an actual torso motion, deviation calculation
means 312 for calculating a deviation of the actual torso motion from the
target torso motion, correction quantity calculation means 308 for
determining a correction quantity from the calculated deviation based on
a prescribed transfer function, and correction means 306 for correcting
the target torso gait data based on the determined correction quantity.
