Chemical plume tracking. 1. Chemical information encoding.
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is shown experimentally that chemical information can be encoded and preserved in flowing liquid streams. It can be retrieved by chemical sensing arrays using correlation analysis. This finding is important for understanding of the mechanism of chemotaxis as practiced by some aquatic animals and also is a necessary prerequisite for construction of chemical plume tracking robots.

Chemical plume tracking. 2. Multiple-frequency modulation.
The purpose of this research is to estimate the effect of turbulent mixing on the information content in a chemically encoded signal, to investigate the effect of the presence of multiple encoded frequencies, and to evaluate the information contained in the higher harmonics of the coherence spectra. The virtual plume instrument is used to mimic the flow conditions and signal patterns in a real ...
متن کاملSensory-mediated Tracking Behaviour in Turbulent Chemical Plumes
We designed and implemented a series of signal processing routines and feedback control algorithms for sensor-mediated chemical plume tracking in a turbulent flow environment. In our design, we focused on development of a signal processing strategy capable of replicating behavioural responses of actively tracking blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus) to chemical stimuli. We have developed a command ...
متن کاملChemical Plume Tracking Behavior in Animals and Mobile Robots
The most important and challenging feat of navigation for many animals is locating important resources by tracking fluid-borne chemicals. As molecules of a source dissolve into flowing air or water they form a patchy turbulent plume which results in the intermittent stimulation required by many odor tracking animals. Most animals need two pieces of information to track a plume: (1) the presence...
متن کاملEJSE Special Issue: Wireless Sensor Networks and Practical Applications
Deployment of sensors for tracking chemical plumes such as those in the subsurface can be quite expensive. A compressed data gathering scheme for chemical plume tracking is presented. With only a fraction (about 25%) of the measurement points required to achieve a given spatial resolution this novel application of compressed sensing can track the plume within 7% accuracy compared to the case of...
متن کاملBioinspired algorithm for autonomous sensor-driven guidance in turbulent chemical plumes.
We designed and implemented a control algorithm for sensor-mediated chemical plume tracking in a turbulent flow environment. In our design, we focused on development of a signal processing strategy capable of replicating behavioral responses of actively tracking blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus) to chemical stimuli. The control algorithm is evaluated in a hardware platform that allows motion in ...
