A humanoid robot is a robot with an overall appearance based on that of the human body (Hirai et al., 1998, Hirukawa et al., 2004). Humanoid robots are created to imitate some of the same physical and mental tasks that humans undergo daily. They are suitable to coexist with human in built-for-human environment because of their anthropomorphism, human friendly design and applicability of locomotion (Kaneko et al., 2002). The goal is that one day humanoid robots will be able to both understand human intelligence and reason and act like humans. If humanoids are able to do so, they could eventually coexist and work alongside humans and could act as proxies for humans to do dangerous or dirty work that would not be done by humans if there is a choice, hence providing humans with more safety, freedom and time. Bearing in mind that such robots will be increasingly more engaged in human’s environment, it is expected that the problem of “working coexistence” of humans and humanoid robots will become acute in the near future. However, the fact that no significant rearrangment of the human’s environment to accomodate the presence of humanoids can be expected. Eventually, the “working coexistence” of humans and robots sharing common workspaces will impose on robots with their mechanical-control structure at least two classes of tasks: motion in a specific environment with obstacles, and manipulating various objects from the human’s environment (Vukobratovic et al., 2005). As far as this working coexistence is concerned, a suitable navigation system combining design, sensing elements, planning and control embedded in a single integrated system is necessary so that humanoid robots can further “adapt” to the environment previously dedicated only to humans. To date, research on humanoid robots has arrived at a point where the construction and stabilization of this type of robot seems to be no longer the key issue. At this stage, it is novel practical applications such as autonomous robot navigation (Saera & Schmidt, 2004, Tu & Baltes, 2006), telerobotics (Sian et al., 2002) and development of intelligent sensor devices (Omata et al., 2004) that are being studied and attracting great interest. Autonomous navigation of walking robots requires that three main tasks be solved: self-localization, obstacle avoidance, and object handling (Clerentin et al., 2005). In current research, we proposed a basic contact interaction-based navigation system called “groping locomotion” on the humanoid robots capable of defining self-localization and obstacle avoidance. This system is based on contact interaction with the aim of creating suitable algorithms for
