  • Abstract
    Adaptable gaits are pivotal for allowing legged robots to navigate difficult terrain. One of the best gait styles to accomplish this goal is the rule-based free gait. First the forward and inverse kinematic solutions are solved for TigerBug, a circular hexapod. Then a rule based free gait is implemented on the circular hexapod in order to provide a platform for future rough terrain navigation.
