Abstract [en]
In this article, a generic CPG architecture is used to model infant crawling gaits and is implemented on the NAO robot platform. The CPG architecture is chosen via a systematic approach to designing CPG networks on the basis of group theory and dynamic systems theory. The NAO robot performance is compared to the iCub robot which has a different anatomical structure. Finally, the comparison of performance and NAO whole-body stability are assessed to show the adaptive property of the CPG architecture and the extent of its ability to transfer to different robot morphologies. © 2011 IEEE.
