چکیده
Jiang Shan, Fumio Nagashima Autonomous System Lab, Fujitsu Lab Abstract: A biologically inspired design strategy for humanoid robot locomotion control and its simulation implementation is presented in this paper. Firstly, the dynamics model of humanoid robot, biologically plausible spinal motor neural circuits, and virtual muscular module are constructed. Then, the control strategy for adaptive bipedal locomotion is investigated, also the development of the general-purpose robot simulation environment is discussed. This research shows that the locomotion control flexibility and autonomy are achieved based on integration of biological foundations, computational neuroscience and robotics, and this work also provides primary consideration for future engineering solution for both real robot and neurological disorder.

Biologically Inspired Locomotion in Humanoid Robots
In this article, we present a biologically inspired behavior-based locomotion approach for humanoid robots. On the low level, locomotion is realised by a combination of rythmic pattern generators to produce walking motions and postural reflexes which keep the robot stable and balanced. A higher level behavior could achieve goal-directed movements by exerting influence on the low-level behaviors...

This paper presents some of the ground mobile robots under development at the Robotics and Mechanisms Laboratory (RoMeLa) at Virginia Tech that use biologically inspired novel locomotion strategies. By studying nature's models and then imitating or taking inspiration from these designs and processes, we apply and implement new ways for mobile robots to move. Unlike most ground mobile robots tha...

The present paper proposes analog integrated circuit (IC) implementation of a biologically inspired controller in quadruped robot locomotion. Our controller is based on the central pattern generator (CPG), which is known as the biological neural network that generates fundamental rhythmic movements in locomotion of animals. Many CPG-based controllers for robot locomotion have been proposed, but...

In fact, many researchers have dealt with these fields individually as inherent research approaches. However although these strategies have performed independently in robotics fields, these approaches are key matters connected with our objective. Although recently many humanoid robots have made their successful debut, they are still very difficult to control. Thus they may not behave as expecte...
