The paper at hand presents an approach for close interoperateration between its reactive behavior-based control approach for highly dynamic environments with a lot of disturbances and a realistic dynamic simulation of the robot for safe parameter evaluation under given time boundaries.enInterconnection of the behavior-based control architecture and a detailed mechatronic machine model for realistic behavior verification of the THOR projectText/Conference Paper1617-5468
