The problem of controlling locomotion is an area in which neuroscience and robotics can
fruitfully interact. In this article, I will review research carried out on locomotor central pattern …

In recent years, quadruped mobile robots' development had experienced rapid progress,
which has subsequently increased their usage in many human-assisted applications …

Cyborg insects have been proposed for applications such as urban search and rescue.
Body-mounted energy-harvesting devices are critical for expanding the range of activity and …

This review article aims to address common research questions in hexapod robotics. How
can we build intelligent autonomous hexapod robots that can exploit their biomechanics …

Neuromechanics seeks to understand how muscles, sense organs, motor pattern
generators, and brain interact to produce coordinated movement, not only in complex terrain …

Some quadruped robots developed recently show better dynamic performance and
environmental adaptability than ever, and have been preliminarily applied in the field of …

For centuries, designers and engineers have looked to biology for inspiration. Biologically
inspired robots are just one example of the application of knowledge of the natural world to …

Legged locomotion on flowing ground (eg, granular media) is unlike locomotion on hard
ground because feet experience both solid-and fluid-like forces during surface penetration …

Physiological studies in walking cats have indicated that two sensory signals are involved in
terminating stance in the hind legs: one related to unloading of the leg and the other to hip …

Rapid, vertically climbing cockroaches produced climbing dynamics similar to geckos,
despite differences in attachment mechanism,foot or toe'morphology and leg number. Given …
