Abstract

Bouncing gait (hopping, running, trotting) is the typical locomotion used by a number of species including humans. In such movements, the leg stiffness is adjusted to offset the changes in external environments [4]. Leg stiffness depends on a combination of individual joint stiffness [4], which is regulated by muscle activation [5]. Thus, we hypothesized that stiffness regulation could compensate for the lack of visual input during bouncing gait.
