- LAG-IO在滑动窗口因子图中紧耦合机身IMU、腿部IMU和关节编码器。
- 基于KDE的连续概率接触检测自适应缩放ZUPT因子协方差。
- 四足机器人非结构地形实验显示其轨迹更准、垂直发散更小、接触过渡更平滑。
验证范围与局限：验证范围为四足机器人在多种非结构化地形上的实验。
英文摘要 (Abstract)
Robust proprioceptive state estimation is crucial for legged robots, particularly in challenging environments where exteroceptive sensors are unreliable. While traditional leg odometry typically relies on a single body-mounted inertial measurement unit (IMU) fused with leg kinematics via an extended Kalman filter (EKF), such methods are vulnerable to linearization errors and hard-contact assumptions, leading to severe drift during slippage or dynamic locomotion.In this paper, we propose LAG-IO, a factor graph-based multi-IMU state estimation framework that tightly couples measurements from a main body IMU, multiple leg-mounted IMUs, and joint encoders within a sliding-window optimization. To handle non-stationary foot-ground interactions, we introduce a continuous probabilistic contact detection module based on kernel density estimation (KDE), which adaptively scales the covariance of zero-velocity update (ZUPT) factors. Furthermore, kinematic relative position factors are formulated to structurally anchor the independent leg inertial states to the robot's main body. Experimental results on a quadruped robot across various unstructured terrains demonstrate that, compared to existing baselines, LAG-IO achieves higher planar trajectory accuracy, reduces unobservable vertical divergence, and provides smoother trajectory transitions during unstable contacts, while maintaining competitive attitude observability.
