A modular bio-inspired architecture for movement generation for the infant-like robot iCub

Auke Ijspeert, Ludovic Righetti, Sarah Dégallier Rochat

Movement generation in humans appears to be processed through a three-layered architecture, where each layer corresponds to a different level of abstraction in the representation of the movement. In this article, we will present an architecture reflecting ...

Passive compliant quadruped robot using central pattern generators for locomotion control

Auke Ijspeert, Ludovic Righetti, Simon Rutishauser, Alexander Spröwitz

We present a new quadruped robot, “Cheetah”, featuring three-segment pantographic legs with passive compliant knee joints. Each leg has two degrees of freedom - knee and hip joint can be actuated using proximal mounted RC servo motors, force transmission t ...
