Abstract:
The invention relates to a new method for the control of movement which takes its idea from the principles on which the movement of certain biological organisms are founded. The proposed approach also permits the development of robotic architecture equipped with a revolutionary analogic system of locomotion, inspired by biological walking. The circuital embodiment of such system of locomotion is made concrete with the possibility of circuitally implementing a model of equations of the reaction diffusion type capable of generating, for certain combinations of parameters, initial conditions and boundary conditions, signals of auto-wave or spatial pattern type for the control of movement.
