The Human Central Pattern Generator for Locomotion: Does It Exist and Contribute to Walking?

Auke Ijspeert, Florin Dzeladini, Karen Minassian

The ability of dedicated spinal circuits, referred to as central pattern generators (CPGs), to produce the basic rhythm and neural activation patterns underlying locomotion can be demonstrated under specific experimental conditions in reduced animal prepar ...

A low-cost, actuated passive dynamic walker kit for accessible research and education

Auke Ijspeert, Jamie Paik, Matthew Aaron Robertson, Amy Roning Wu

A low-cost bipedal walking robot kit with limited actuation and sensing capabilities was designed and built to achieve actively powered, passive dynamic walking locomotion over level ground. The walking system is composed of readily available parts and mat ...

Locomotion Dynamics for Bio-inspired Robots with Soft Appendages: Application to Flapping Flight and Passive Swimming

Yannick Morel, Mathieu Porez

In animal locomotion, either in fish or flying insects, the use of flexible terminal organs or appendages greatly improves the performance of locomotion (thrust and lift). In this article, we propose a general unified framework for modeling and simulating ...

Foldable Drones: from Biology to Technology

Dario Floreano, Stefano Mintchev, Jun Shintake

Current drones are developed with a fixed morphology that can limit their versatility and mission capabilities. There is biological evidence that adaptive morphological changes can not only extend dynamic performances, but also provide new functionalities. ...

Rich and Robust Bio-Inspired Locomotion Control for Humanoid Robots

Nicolas Benoît Dominique Van der Noot

Bipedal locomotion is a challenging task in the sense that it requires to maintain dynamic balance while steering the gait in potentially complex environments. Yet, humans usually manage to move without any apparent difficulty, even on rough terrains. This ...

Development of Bio-inspired Underwater Robot with Adaptive Morphology Capable of Multiple Swimming Modes

Dario Floreano, Stefano Mintchev, Jun Shintake, Thibaut André Pierre Paschal

Bio-inspired underwater robots have several benefits compared to traditional underwater vehicles such as agility, efficiency, and an environmentally friendly body. However, the bio-inspired underwater robots developed so far have a single swimming mode, wh ...

Fast Trajectory Optimization for Legged Robots Using Vertex-Based ZMP Constraints

Jonas Buchli, Farbod Farshidian, Alexander Winkler

This letter combines the fast zero-moment-point approaches that work well in practice with the broader range of capabilities of a trajectory optimization formulation, by optimizing over body motion, footholds, and center of pressure simultaneously. We intr ...

Adaptive Morphology: A Design Principle for Multimodal and Multifunctional Robots

Dario Floreano, Stefano Mintchev

Morphology plays an important role in behavioral and locomotion strategies of living and artificial systems. There is biological evidence that adaptive morphological changes can not only extend dynamic performances by reducing tradeoffs during locomotion b ...

Structured light enables biomimetic swimming and versatile locomotion of photoresponsive soft microrobots

Peer Fischer, Tian Qiu, Hao Zeng

Microorganisms move in challenging environments by periodic changes in body shape. In contrast, current artificial microrobots cannot actively deform, exhibiting at best passive bending under external fields. Here, by taking advantage of the wireless, scal ...
