Automatic locomotion pattern generation for modular robots
Locomotion is considered as most basic function of robots. In the case of ordinary robots, they are not needed to change locomotion pattern because their configurations are consta...

Self-reconfigurable M-TRAN structures and walker generation
The M-TRAN is a modular robot capable of both three-dimensional self-reconfiguration and whole body locomotion. Introducing regularity in allowed structures reduced difficulties o...

Programmable Central Pattern Generators: an Application to Biped Locomotion Control
— We present a system of coupled nonlinear oscillators to be used as programmable central pattern generators, and apply it to control the locomotion of a humanoid robot. Central ...
