This paper outlines aspects of locomotor control in insects that may serve as the basis for the design of controllers for autonomous hexapod robots. Control of insect walking can b...
This paper describes the kinematic analysis of two different cricket locomotion modalities, and the use of these data in a dynamic simulation to combine and simplify the insect...

— This paper presents a method for the control of locomotion in a robot hexapod. The approach is based on the WalkNet structure, which in turn is based on the neural control stru...
During locomotion sensory information from cutaneous and muscle receptors is continuously integrated with the locomotor central pattern generator (CPG) to generate an appropriate m...
— We present a system of coupled nonlinear oscillators to be used as programmable central pattern generators, and apply it to control the locomotion of a humanoid robot. Central ...
