Biomimetic and bio-inspired robotics in electric fish research.
Weakly electric knifefish have intrigued both biologists and engineers for decades with their unique electrosensory system and agile swimming mechanics. Study of these fish has resulted in models that illuminate the principles behind their electrosensory system and unique swimming abilities. These models have uncovered the mechanisms by which knifefish generate thrust for swimming forward and b...
متن کاملComputational Intelligence Techniques in Bio-inspired Robotics
Biologically inspired robotics is a rapidly emerging research area standing at the cross-cut of biology, artificial intelligence, and robotics. The structural and functional perfection of the biological creatures achieved through thousands of years of evolution in nature have made them a great source of inspiration for designing complex autonomous systems. Accordingly, robotics researchers have...
متن کاملBio-inspired Robotic Fish with Multiple Fins
In order to improve the performance of AUVs in terms of efficiency and maneuverability, researchers have proposed biomimetic propulsion systems that swim using flapping fins rather than rotary propellers. This calls for the exploration of unique locomotion characteristics found in a variety of fish for use in underwater robots. (Sfakiotakis et. al., 1999) present a good review of fish swimming ...
متن کاملTowards Morphological Flexibility: Modular Robotics and Bio-inspired Control
As a contribution to the efforts towards robotic systems of higher flexibility we present our concept of morphologically dynamic robots. Within the projects SYMBRION and REPLICATOR, that focus on modular robotics, we have developed bio-inspired control techniques to achieve new concepts of dynamic, autonomous morphological structures. We propose three modes of coupling between robot modules: sw...
متن کاملChidori – a bio-inspired cognitive architecture for collective robotics applications
A cognitive collaborative multi-agent control architecture that addresses real-world control problems for swarms of mobile robots is proposed. The swarm's emergent behaviour is obtained by using a distributed Particle Swarm Optimization inspired algorithm. A swarm-user interface is also presented and offers a way for a human operator to interact with and guide the robotic swarm without limiting...
