Abstract

In the context of research on animal locomotion, a salamander robot and its locomotion controller are currently under development at the Biologically Inspired Robotics Group (BIRG) at the EPFL. This document presents a Java applet for this controller, developed as a semester project in the purpose of making the functioning of the controller and the effects of some parameter visible and accessible for other researchers and scientists. This report is divided into seven parts. There is first an introduction to the aims of the project, followed by some background information about the controller itself and its situation in a more general research context. The third part details the design of the Java applet, carried from the C implementation of the controller and the fourth part presents the graphical user interface and the behaviours and results observable from it. The fifth and sixth parts explain the problems encountered during this project and detail some ideas for further work. Finally, the report is concluded with some personal assessment about the goals achieved and feelings about the whole
