Insect-Inspired Robotic Homing
Many animals, including insects, successfully engage in visual homing. We describe a system that allows a mobile robot to home. Specifically, we propose a simple, yet robust, homing scheme that only relies upon the observation of the bearings of visible landmarks. However, this can easily be extended to include other visual cues. The homing algorithm allows a mobile robot to home incrementally ...
متن کاملInsect Inspired Robots
Insect behaviour has been a rich source of inspiration for the field of robotics as the perception and navigation problems encountered by autonomous robots are faced also by insects. In this paper, we introduce a research platform, the Insectbot, that was built as a testbed for new biologically-inspired, vision-based algorithms and systems. The Insectbot is a groundbased robot but it is capable...
متن کاملInsect-inspired Autonomous Microflyer
Autonomous flight in cluttered environments such as houses or offices requires high maneuverability, fast mapping from sensors to actuators and extremely light overall weight. Although flying insects are well capable to solve this problem, roboticists have been at pain to reproduce such capabilities. At the Laboratory of Intelligent Systems, we are taking inspiration from flying insects to prog...
متن کاملInsect-Inspired Estimation of Egomotion
Tangential neurons in the fly brain are sensitive to the typical optic flow patterns generated during egomotion. In this study, we examine whether a simplified linear model based on the organization principles in tangential neurons can be used to estimate egomotion from the optic flow. We present a theory for the construction of an estimator consisting of a linear combination of optic flow vect...
متن کاملSocial Insect-Inspired Multi-Robot Coverage
Coordination is one of the most interesting and complicated research issues in distributed multi-robot systems (MRS), aiming to improve performance, energy consumption, robustness and reliability of a robotic system in accomplishing complex tasks. Social insect-inspired coordination techniques achieve these goals by applying simple but effective heuristics from which elegant solutions emerge. T...
