Early temperamental traits in an octopus (Octopus bimaculoides).
During their 3rd week of life, 73 Octopus bimaculoides were observed to test whether discrete behaviors could be grouped reliably to reflect dimensions of temperament. Frequencies of behaviors during Week 3 were subjected to principal-components analysis (PCA), resulting in 4 components (active engagement, arousal/readiness, aggression, and avoidance/disinterest) that explain 53% of the varianc...
متن کاملOctopuses (Octopus bimaculoides) and cuttleWshes (Sepia pharaonis, S. oYcinalis) can conditionally discriminate
In complex navigation using landmarks, an animal must discriminate between potential cues and show context (condition) sensitivity. Such conditional discrimination is considered a form of complex learning and has been associated primarily with vertebrates. We tested the hypothesis that octopuses and cuttleWsh are capable of conditional discrimination. Subjects were trained in two maze conWgurat...
متن کامل3D reconstruction of octopus arm swimming motion
Arm swimming in the octopus is a mode of locomotion that is used by the animal primarily for hunting, defence, or escape. The motion, in general, is characterized by a fast closing of the arms and a slow opening of the arms, resulting in a considerable propulsive power. The movement has previously been discussed, however the detailed kinematics is still unknown. For that, we investigated in det...
متن کاملSoft Robot Arm Inspired by the Octopus
The octopus is a marine animal whose body has no rigid structures. It has eight arms composed of a peculiar muscular structure, named a muscular hydrostat. The octopus arms provide it with both locomotion and grasping capabilities, thanks to the fact that their stiffness can change over a wide range and can be controlled through combined contractions of the muscles. The muscular hydrostat can b...
متن کاملDesign of a biomimetic robotic octopus arm.
This paper reports the rationale and design of a robotic arm, as inspired by an octopus arm. The octopus arm shows peculiar features, such as the ability to bend in all directions, to produce fast elongations, and to vary its stiffness. The octopus achieves these unique motor skills, thanks to its peculiar muscular structure, named muscular hydrostat. Different muscles arranged on orthogonal pl...
