  • Abstract
    A simple control law is proposed to maintain the movement of a trotting quadruped. The assumption behind this control law is that one should be able to rely upon the quadruped´s momentum for stability. The control law should only serve to redirect or maintain the quadruped´s momentum. The result is a control law that works well so long as the quadruped is moving.
