Abstract
A method is presented for the generation of a locally optimal free gait for 2-D generalized motion of a quadruped walking machine. It employs a heuristic graph search procedure based on the A* algorithm. The method essentially looks into the consequences of a move to a certain depth before actually committing to it. Deadlocks and inefficiencies are thus sensed well in advance and avoided
