A method of detecting collision between a robot and its environment comprises: generating, on the basis of a dynamic model of the robot, a signal representative of the collisions between the robot and environment, the signal being a residual r; carrying out an adaptive high-pass filtering of the residual r; determining, in a recursive manner, an adaptive threshold T composed of at least one first dynamic term T&Dgr;1 equal to an item of information regarding the parametric uncertainties between the model and real behavior of the robot, the parametric uncertainties being related to a first variable characteristic of the state of the robot among the following variables: position, velocity or acceleration of an articulation of the robot, or a linear or nonlinear function of one of these variables or of a combination; comparing the filtered residual with the adaptive threshold T to deduce the existence or otherwise of a collision. |
