CPS infant multirobot gait
file
This project is a modular, computationally-distributed multi-robot cyberphysical system (CPS) for assisting young developmentally-delayed children in learning to walk. Three challenges are stabilizing medio-lateral body sway, developing gait that exploits energy exchange, and coordination of multiple degrees of freedom. Adults assisting children learning to walk provide a "scaffold" of postural supports that enables the child to safely explore the forces acting on its body.
