The control includes the position control in the swing phase, the force control in the support phase and the switching control in the force\/position switching. To improve the passing ability of quadruped crawling robot on a slope, this paper aims to propose a soft control strategy.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The strategy adopts the statically stable crawling gait as the main gait. As the robot moves forward, the position\/force section switching control is adopted. When the foot does not touch the ground, the joint position control based on the variable speed PID is performed. When the foot touches the ground, the position-based impedance control is performed, and a fuzzy multi-model switching control based on friction compensation is proposed to achieve smooth switching of force and position.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Findings<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The proposed method offers a solution for stable passage in slope environment. The quadruped crawling robot can realize smooth switching of force\/position, precise positioning in the swing process and soft control of force in the supporting phase. This fact is verified by simulation and test.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The method presented in this paper takes advantage of minimal tracking errors and minimal jitters.
