Abstract

This paper presents a study about gait patterns for hexapod robots with extremities called C-legs. The study analyses several modes of gait that different animals use to move through the terrestrial environment, and another new ones that arise when looking at the limitations that present the existing ones. The whole study is reinforced with a series of simulations carried out, where the obtained results are analysed to select the best gait pattern for a specific situation.
