  • Abstract
    An evolutionary algorithm is used to evolve gaits with the Sony entertainment robot, AIBO. All processing is handled by the robot´s on-board computer with individuals evaluated using the robot´s hardware. By sculpting the experimental environment, we increase the robustness to different surface types and different AIBOs. Evolved gaits are faster than those created by hand. Using this technique we evolve a gait used in the consumer version of AIBO
