— 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 ...
— This paper addresses the problem of generating dynamic motion for a humanoid between two predefined postures. The humanoid robot starts its motion from a statically stable con...

— Passive dynamics plays an important role in legged locomotion of the biological systems. The use of passive dynamics is expected for energy efficiency, self-stabilization agai...
— Recently, there has been a growing interest in biologically inspired biped locomotion control with Central Pattern Generator (CPG). However, few experimental attempts on real h...
