In this document, a general framework for generating bio-inspired walking is outlined. This framework relies on the combination of a musculoskeletal model of the leg and different bio-inspired neural principles for providing activation signals to these virtual muscles. We explored this framework both for humanoid walking – achieving both versatile and human-like gaits – and for human walking assistance.
