A Simulation Testbed for Biologically Inspired Robots and Their Controllers
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a dynamics simulator designed to aid the development of control algorithms for biologically inspired robots. We describe the simulator and a two-tier framework for control code interfacing that allows control code to be written in a standard object-oriented language (C++), but encapsulates such code to produce modular, reusable, distributed controllers with parameterizable inputoutput transmission properties such as delay, sampling rate, and noise.

A Testbed Architecture for MAGICC Applications
A testbed is developed for testing Multi-AGent Intelligent Coordination and Control (MAGICC). The robots act as agents which make decisions and act upon them via classical control theory. The testbed consists of sensors( camera and encoders), embedded controllers, modems and a computer network which are integrated into a hierm;chical control which has decision makers, controllers, estimators an...
متن کاملRemote Control Technique with OFDMA Based Approach for Biologically Inspired Robots in a Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET)
Wireless communication is adding improvements in remote controlling techniques of vehicles or mobile robots day by day. From mission based AGVs to biologically inspired robots each area of robotic research is being enriched from time to time with the advent of Wi-Fi technologies like 1G, 2G, and 3G etc. This paper reflects a novel approach to control a mobile ad hoc network built with a number ...
متن کاملGroß Self - Assembling Robots
We look at robotic systems made of separate discrete components that, by selfassembling, can organize into physical structures of growing size. We review 22 such systems, exhibiting components ranging from passive mechanical parts to mobile robots. We present a taxonomy of the systems, and discuss their design and function. We then focus on a particular system, the swarm-bot. In swarm-bot, the ...
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 کاملBiologically Inspired Four Elements Compact Antenna Arrays With Enhanced Sensitivity for Direction of Arrival Estimation
A new four elements compact antenna array is presented and discussed to achieve enhanced phase resolution without sacrificing the array output power. This structure inspired by the Ormia Ochracea’s coupled ears. The analogy between this insect acute directional hearing capabilities and the electrically compact antenna array is used to enhance the array sensitivity to direction of arrival estima...
