Head motion stabilization during quadruped robot locomotion: combining CPGs and stochastic optimization methods

In this work, the authors propose a combined approach based on a controller architecture that is able to generate locomotion for a quadruped robot and a global optimization algorithm to generate head movement stabilization. The movement controllers are biologically inspired in the concept of Central...
