Abstract
The study proposed describes preliminary results of a spiking implementation of lamprey's Central Pattern Generator (CPG) using Neuromorphic VLSI devices. Several robotic lamprey implementations have been built to test the models in a bio-mimetic artifact but, in these systems there is a clear separation between the mechanical system, and their control part. This study aims to implement a CPG hardware network, to directly control actuators, creating a biomimetic robot both from mechanical and electronic point of view.
