We proposed the use of a Toda-Rayleigh ring as a central pattern generator (CPG) for controlling hexapodal robots. We show that the ring composed of six Toda-Rayleigh units coupled to the limb actuators reproduces the most common hexapodal gaits. We provide an electrical circuit
Combining Central Pattern Generators with the Electromagnetism-like Algorithm for Head Motion Stabilization during Quadruped Robot Locomotion
Visually-guided locomotion is important for autonomous robotics. However, there are several difficulties, for instance, the head shaking that results from the robot locomotion itself that constraints stable image acquisition and the possibility to rely on that information to act
Neural control of locomotion: sensory control of the central pattern generator and its relation to treadmill training.
Many studies have shown that a special treadmill training is effective in restoring locomotor function in cats with a complete spinal lesion. In the last few years it has become possible to regain some locomotor activity in patients suffering from a spinal cord injury through an
Spinal cord segments containing key elements of the central pattern generators for three forms of scratch reflex in the turtle.
The immobilized, low-spinal turtle produces 3 forms of the fictive scratch reflex in response to tactile stimulation of specific sites on its body surface (Robertson et al., 1985). We used complete transections of the spinal cord at different rostrocaudal levels to reveal the min
Cycle period of a network oscillator is independent of membrane potential and spiking activity in individual central pattern generator neurons.
Rhythmic motor patterns are thought to arise through the cellular properties and synaptic interactions of neurons in central pattern generator (CPG) circuits. Yet, when examining the CPG underlying the rhythmic escape response of the opisthobranch mollusc, Tritonia diomedea, we f
The Cycle Period of a Network Oscillator is Independent of Membrane Potential and Spiking Activity in Individual Central Pattern Generator Neurons
Rhythmic motor patterns are thought to arise through the cellular properties and synaptic interactions of neurons in central pattern generator (CPG) circuits. Yet, when examining the CPG underlying the rhythmic escape response of the opisthobranch mollusc, Tritonia diomedea, we f
The Effects of Vestibular Stimulation Rate and Magnitude of Acceleration on Central Pattern Generation for Chest-Wall Kinematics in Preterm Infants. by
Date Approved: __________ iii ABSTRACT The vestibular system of the fetus is responsive to accelerations in utero by 25 weeks gestational age (Hooker, 1969). However, the restrictive environment of the crib/isolette in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and decreased positio
Dynamics of Central Pattern Generating Networks: Locus of Control
Oscillatory activity, paramount throughout the central nervous system, is of special significance in the production of rhythmic motor movement , such as locomotion, breathing, and chewing. Such movements are typically generated by networks of synaptically coupled neurons, known a
A combination of central pattern generator-based and reflex-based neural networks for dynamic, adaptive, robust bipedal locomotion
Robotic systems inspired from humans have always been lightening up the curiosity of engineers and scientists. Of many challenges, human locomotion is a very difficult one where a number of different systems needs to interact in order to generate a correct and balanced pattern. T
An analog CMOS central pattern generator for interlimb coordination in quadruped locomotion
This paper proposes a neuromorphic analog CMOS controller for interlimb coordination in quadruped locomotion. Animal locomotion, such as walking, running, swimming, and flying, is based on periodic rhythmic movements. These rhythmic movements are driven by the biological neural n
