Abstract
Biorobotics is a promising new area of research at the interface between bi ology and robotics. Robots can either be used as physical models of biologi cal systems or be directly inspired by biological studies. A great deal of progress has recently been made in biorobotic studies of locomotion, orient ation, and vertebrate arm control.
