Frequency Modulation of Body Waves to Improve Performance of Limbless Robots

RSS 2020poster

Sidewinder rattlesnakes generate movement through coordinated lateral and vertical traveling waves of body curvature. Previous biological and robotic studies have demonstrated that proper control and coordination of these two waves enables robust and versatile locomotion in complex environments. How…

A Hierarchical Geometric Framework to Design Locomotive Gaits for Highly Articulated Robots

RSS 2019poster

Motion planning for mobile robots with many degrees-of-freedom (DoF) is challenging due to their high-dimensional configuration spaces. To manage this curse of dimensionality, this paper proposes a new hierarchical framework that decomposes the system into sub-systems (based on shared capabilities o…
