Animals can accomplish many incredible behavioral feats across a wide range of
operational environments and scales that current robots struggle to match. One explanation …

It is widely believed that adaptive peripheral neural control circuits and compliant peripheral
biomechanics in biological systems are critical for their control of interactions with the …

Manipulation of objects of variable size, shape and surface properties remains a challenging
problem in robotics. In this paper, we present the design of a soft, pneumatically variable …

Controlling limbs in robotics is a nonlinear, complicated calculation that animals can do
without significant effort. In this work we present a dynamical neural model with bioinspired …

To capture and understand animal behavior, engineers and biologists seek to develop
biologically accurate neuromechanical models of muscle dynamics and neural control …
