Abstract
  • Simulation has provided much design inspiration for the field of robotics. While many astute ideas can be computationally formulated, there are some good structures in animals that people call “biologically-inspired”. Many robots are designed based on natural creatures such as crabs, spiders, etc. Before we can take full advantage of the structural features of animals, it is important to know how and why they work. Compared to the data on paper, 3D simulations presented by computer can more visually represent and test the crab’s sideways walking characteristics and possibly provide insight into this unique form of locomotion.
