Researchers develop algorithm that allows robots to walk after legs are damaged or broken (w/ Video)

A trio of researchers has developed an algorithm that when added to the code of walking robots, allows them to recover from a damaged or broken leg and resume walking. In their paper uploaded to the preprint server arXiv, Antoine Cully, Jean-Baptiste Mouret and Jeff Clune of the Sorbonne and the University of Wyoming, respectively, describe what their new algorithm does and how it might be used by robots in the future.
