Learning of Sensorimotor Contingencies to move a Four-Legged Robot

In this paper, an approach for learning of crawling movements of a four-legged autonomous robot is presented. On the basis of a self-supervised strategy, the robot learns to choose its next movement by its sensorimotor states. This is based on feedback gained from the environment by actively tracking an object. Within a few hours of training, the robot shows interesting crawling behaviour patte...

Kinematics Analysis of a Four Legged Robot Suspended on Wire

Some theoretical and experimental studies have been developed to obtain independent equipment for inspection and maintenace of electric and communication lines, allowing to increase the efficiency of the process and to reduce the risk of accidents with the employees who execute the task. This activity is perfectly adequate for mobile robots because they are capable to move in avoiding the exist...

The Construction of the Four Legged Prototype Robot ARAMIES

This paper describes the mechanical design of the ARAMIES integration study, a four legged robot. It combines newly developed electronic, mechanical , and software components building a fully functional ambulating system. The mechanical concept aims at flexible kinematics and robustness of all components. Therefore, a modular construction kit with specially designed parts is used.

Legged Robot 16 . Legged Robots

In this chapter, we introduce legged robots. After introducing the history of legged robot research in Sect. 16.1, we start to discuss hopping robots and analyze a simple passive walker as a typical cycling walking robot in Sect. 16.2; the Poincaré map is one of the most important tools to analyze its dynamics and stability. In Sect. 16.3, the dynamics and control of general biped robots are di...
