Interacting with zebrafish using robotic agents
Francesco Mondada, Frank Bonnet, Bertrand Eric Collignon, Marcelo Elias de Oliveira
Identifying the communication channels inside a society of zebrafish could allow scientists to trigger specific behaviors on the animals to tests for instance the effect of a drug or a genetic mutation. We propose a robotic system to integrate the zebrafis ...
2015Social Adaptation of Robots for Modulating Self-Organization in Animal Societies
Francesco Mondada, Robert Matthew Mills, Frank Bonnet, Marcelo Elias de Oliveira
The goal of the work presented here is to influence the overall behaviour of specific animal societies by integrating computational mechatronic devices (robots) into those societies. To do so, these devices should be accepted by the animals as part of the ...
IEEE2014A Miniature Mobile Robot Developed to be Socially Integrated with Species of Small Fish
Francesco Mondada, Stefan Yves Gabriel Binder, Frank Bonnet, Marcelo Elias de Oliveira
A robot accepted by animals as conspecific is a very powerful tool in behavioral biology, particularly in studies of gregarious animals. In this paper we present the first results of acceptance of a robotic fish designed for experiments on collective anima ...
2014Decentralized Self-Selection of Swarm Trajectories: From Dynamical Systems to Robotic Implementation
Francesco Mondada, Max-Olivier Hongler, Guillaume Adrien Sartoretti, Marcelo Elias de Oliveira
In this paper, we present a distributed control strategy, enabling agents to converge onto and travel along a consensually selected curve among a class of closed planar curves. Individual agents identify the number of neighbors within a finite circular sen ...
