Summary:One of the ultimate dreams in robotics is to create life-like robotics systems, such as a humanoid robot and an animal-like legged robot. We choose to build a pet-type legged robot because we believe that dog-like and cat-like legged robots have major potential for future entertainment robotics markets for personal robots. However, a number of challenges exist before any such robot can be fielded in the real world. Robots have to be reasonably intelligent, maintain a certain level of agility, and be able to engage in some collaborative behaviors. RoboCup is an ideal challenge to foster robotics technologies for small personal and mobile robotics system. In this paper, we present Sony's legged robots system which entered RoboCup-98 Paris as a special exhibition game
