We have constructed an autonomous quadruped, Scout II, which features only a hip actuator and a passive compliant prismatic joint per leg. In this paper we demonstrate in simulati...
— In this paper the compliant low level control of a biologically inspired control architecture suited for bipedal dynamic walking robots is presented. It consists of elastic mec...

— Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) are becoming a popular model for the control of locomotion of legged robots. Biological CPGs are neural networks responsible for the generatio...
An implementation of a biped robot which as capable of dynamic walking by a simple nonlinear control algorithm. is presented. Four D.C. servo motors actuate the knee and ankle joi...
