Learning locomotion over rough terrain using terrain templates
— We address the problem of foothold selection in robotic legged locomotion over very rough terrain. The difficulty of the problem we address here is comparable to that of human...

A control architecture for quadruped locomotion over rough terrain
— Legged robots have the potential to navigate a much larger variety of terrain than their wheeled counterparts. In this paper we present a hierarchical control architecture that...

Dynamically running quadrupeds self-stable region expansion by mechanical design
— Dynamic stability allows running animals to maintain preferred speed during locomotion over rough terrain. It appears that rapid disturbance rejection is an emergent property o...

A Hybrid Motion Model for Aiding State Estimation in Dynamic Quadrupedal Locomotion
— Trotting and galloping allow a quadruped to rapidly traverse rough terrain. Modeling this motion, which is only dynamically stable, is of importance for legged robot operation ...
