The problem of controlling locomotion is an area in which neuroscience and robotics can
fruitfully interact. In this article, I will review research carried out on locomotor central pattern …

This paper surveys the developments of the last 20 years in the field of central pattern
generator (CPG) inspired locomotion control, with particular emphasis on the fast emerging …

Robots have transformed many industries, most notably manufacturing, and have the power
to deliver tremendous benefits to society, such as in search and rescue, disaster response …

We present the design of a novel compliant quadruped robot, called Cheetah-cub, and a
series of locomotion experiments with fast trotting gaits. The robot's leg configuration is …

The history of life is a nearly four billion year old story of transformative change. This change
ranges from dramatic macroscopic innovations such as the evolution of wings or eyes, to a …

“Natural selection can preserve innovations, but it cannot create them. Nature's many
innovations—some uncannily perfect—call for natural principles that accelerate life's ability …

This article presents a review on trends in modular reconfigurable robots, comparing the
evolution of the features of the most significant robots over the years and focusing on the …

With increasing demand on reliable robotic platforms that can alleviate the burden of daily
painstaking tasks, researchers have focused their effort towards develo** robotic …

This article presents a strategy for autonomous locomotion trajectory planning for high-level
control of lower limb exoskeletons by defining a novel set of adaptive central pattern …

This paper reviews recent developments in the emerging field of resilient robots and the
related robots that share common concerns with them, such as self-reconfigurable robots …
