Abstract

Most walking machines cannot operate within the typical natural environment, including ground relief especially. In that case, the main tasks are adaptive gait control realization and perceptual computing system developing. There are no paths to solve this problem without new experimental exploration of animals‘ gaits. Usage of high speed strobelight photography made its possible to observe some hidden aspects of horse gait and leg control processes, like definition of hoof stepping point location.
