Hexapod moving in complex terrains via a new adaptive CPG gait design

摘要

Purpose - This paper aims to use the Matsuoka's neural oscillators as the basic units of central pattern generator (CPG), and to offer a new CPG architecture consisting of a dual neural CPG of circular three links responsible for oscillator phase adjustment, to which an external neural oscillator is added, which is responsible for oscillator amplitude adjustment, to control foot depth to balance itself when treading on an obstacle.
