— 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...
In this paper, we introduce a new hexapedal locomotion controller that simulation evidence suggests will be capable of driving our RHex robot at speeds exceeding five body length...
