The Experiment Of The Locomotion Area In Midbrain Of Gekko Gecko And Its Three-dimensional Rendering

In recent years, because the biological robot is more advantage than other robots in many factors such as: reliability, agility, haleness and adaptability, the energy efficiency biological robot has become one of the primary fields of robot technology. Stimulating the locomotion nucleus of the animal's brain with electrode is an effective method to control the animals. It is necessary to explore the position of the location nucleus for controlling the animals.This paper using the anesthetic geckos as object, attempts to study how to control the movement of the geckos from the nerve center. Thus we can command the biological robot replaces human to complete what the human can not do or can not dare with. Under this background, this paper introduces the brain evolution path of the vertebrate and compares the different kinds of animal's brain in vertebrate; explains the reasons and meaning to research the geckos of midbrain. Locomotion can be evoked by using electrode in anesthetized geckos. We record the position of the locomotion nucleus in midbrain, and make the brain tissue sections. We reconstruct the midbrain profile and render the locomotion area in profile, using the software Geomagic Studio of reverse engineering.The experiment results show that several kinds of locomotion modes such as mouth moving, lateral curvature of vertebral column,'S'shape curvature of vertebral column, limbs moving and walking can be evoked. Phonation reaction is also elicited successfully by electrical stimulation in anesthetized geckoes. The results play an important role in controlling the geckos.
