Waypoint Mobile Robot Exploration Based on Biologically Inspired Algorithms

Biologically Inspired Mobile Robot Control Algorithms

To get a better understanding of the application of artiicial neural networks to the robotics eld, the rst part of this 3-year project supported by the NFP-PNR23 project was devoted to the study of some applications of neural networks to motor control , sensor fusion and image processing and to the development of sensor interfaces and neural network dedicated accelerators. The second part of th...

Biologically-inspired 3D grasp synthesis based on visual exploration

Object grasping is a typical human ability which is widely studied from both a biological and an engineering point of view. This paper presents an approach to grasp synthesis inspired by the human neurophysiology of actionoriented vision. Our grasp synthesis method is built upon an architecture which, taking into account the differences between robotic and biological systems, proposes an adapta...

Biologically-inspired robot spatial cognition based on rat neurophysiological studies

Biologically inspired computation for intelligent autonomous exploration

Autonomous operation of unmanned spacecraft, aircraft, and other robotic vehicles has long been a goal for the exploration of faraway, hostile frontiers of space and hard-to-access or dangerous environments on Earth. Robotic capabilities already exist that allow hazard avoidance by smart navigation systems using fast, fault-tolerant, and reliable onboard computing devices that can withstand har...

Bio-inspired Transputer Based-Fuzzy Mobile Robot

Mobile robots have been used widely in large number of intelligent based applications, where a random manoeuvring is an essential part of such systems, [1,2]. In this regards, experience has shown that mobile robots do require advanced parallel intelligent based control mechanisms. In this article, it is shown how a mobile robot can be controlled in movement via some rule based system. In this ...
