Abstract;There is operation of walking and running for the movement of a humanoid robot. However, there are problems at the load, the energy consumption, and the moving speed etc. of the actuator. Then, it proposed the slide movement as a new movement method. The load and the consumption energy of the actuator can be reduced by doing the slide movement. And, the improvement of the moving speed can be expected. It is the one to aim at the achievement of the slide movement by paying attention to the slide of a humanoid robot, and using roller skates in this research. A humanoid robot uses Robovie-M made of VSTONE Ltd. It simulated by DADS to achieve the slide movement of Robovie-M, and the slide experiment was done based on the simulation result. Consequently, it became 0.11m/s at the moving speed of the slide though the moving speed of walking was 0.34m/s. (author abst.)
