In this article, a nonlinear sliding observer is proposed for a pneumatic robot leg. This observer gives an asymptotic linear stable observation error. The class of systems for which the observer is designed may be considered as triangular observer form. The aim of this work is to ensure the stability of a pneumatic legged robot with robustness, versus perturbation, and rapidity. To verify these three properties, we develop an appropriate sliding mode control.
