Frame-Coded Legged Locomotion over Noisy Terrain

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 9, 2026 · UTC

Open-loop multilegged locomotion over rough terrain has been interpreted as matter transport over a noisy channel: leg-ground interactions are discrete basic active contacts, terrain deletes or perturbs those contacts, and spatial redundancy concentrates the resulting thrust and arrival time. That construction is repetition-like because every module carries the same scalar locomotion task. It consequently provides neither a positive task rate nor a decoder that changes with the surviving contact set. Here we formulate locomotion instead as a quantized finite-frame expansion with erasures. A d-
