The invention relates to a robot dog dynamic balance and fall self-recovery method and device for a complex terrain, and the method comprises the steps: building a robust local elevation map through fusing multi-sensor data and quantifying the motion uncertainty of a robot; and a safe foot region set defined by the convex polygon is extracted through geometric feature analysis and plane segmentation. Then, collaborative planning of the trunk and the landing point is carried out in combination with a user instruction and the region set. In a control layer, a nonlinear model predictive control algorithm is adopted, a safety area is used as a hard constraint, and incomplete speed constraint is applied to a wheel type foot end, so that an optimized trunk track and a foot end force reference are output. The whole-body controller converts an upper-layer instruction into an accurate joint torque through a multi-task optimization framework with a weight. When instability is detected, the system can autonomously plan and execute a recovery action sequence including curling, controllable rolling and cooperative supporting.
