| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The following three themes were performed for elucidation of mechanism of maneuverable multilegged locomotion based on straight walk instability and development of maneuverable multilegged robot: 1. Improvement of a multilegged robot to perform a turning task, 2. Verification of the straight walk instability, and 3. Performance of the turning task and investigation of the relationship between straight walk stability and turning maneuverability. These results show that straight walk instability contributes to turning maneuverability, which suggests important control of body axis flexibility to manipulate straight walk stability and maneuverability related to animal locomotion strategies. We submitted a research paper based on these results.
