  • Abstract
    In this paper, a CPG-based hierarchical control system for the gecko-inspired robot is proposed to accomplish the detachment and attachment movements and to realize crossing obstacles. We designed a CPG nervous network with feedback connection, which can produce adaptive patterns for extra environments. Simulations were carried out to test the system´s realization. Experiments show that the control strategy is feasible and make it easier for the robot to attach and detach.
