Abstract
We propose a multi PIC microcomputer system for a quadruped waking robot using eight degrees of freedom. The control system has a two-level hierarchy in which one PIC microcomputer is used as a master computer, and eight PIC microcomputers are used as slave computers. Three bits are used to communicate between the master and slave computers. We have verified from experiments that this multi PIC microcomputer system is functional.
