  • Abstract
    In particular the advantages of legged compared to wheeled locomotion arise in unstructured, uneven and rough terrain. Based on the sensor system the behaviour control of LAURON III for walking in rough terrain is presented in this paper. To cope with terrain irregularities local behaviours like collision reaction and searching for ground are realised by an adaptation of the basic leg trajectories. Several global behaviours like the control of the body height and the centre of gravity influence the trajectories of all legs simultaneously
