(Reuters) - A legged robot is able to teach itself to walk by continuously modeling its own body using internal simulations in this image released on November 16, 2006. The same on-board algorithm also allows the robot to diagnose structural damage, such as the separation of a leg, and to recover from such damage by teaching itself to walk using a different gait.
