Strategies to modulate zebrafish collective dynamics with a closed-loop biomimetic robotic system
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet
The objective of this study is to integrate biomimetic robots into small groups of zebrafish and to modulate their collective behaviours. A possible approach is to have the robots behave like sheepdogs. In this case, the robots would behave like a differen ...
IOP PUBLISHING LTD2020How mimetic should a robotic fish be to socially integrate into zebrafish groups ?
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet, Bertrand Eric Collignon
Biomimetic robots are promising tools in animal behavioural studies. If they are socially integrated in a group of animals, they can produce calibrated social stimuli to test the animal responses. However, the design of such social robots is challenging as ...
2018Designing a socially integrated mobile robot for ethological research
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Jean-Louis Deneubourg
A robot introduced into an animal group, accepted by the animals as conspecifics, and capable of interacting with them is an ecient tool for ethological research, particularly in studies of collective and social behaviour. In this paper, we present the imp ...
2018How to Blend a Robot Within a Group of Zebrafish: Achieving Social Acceptance Through Real-Time Calibration of a Multi-level Behavioural Model
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet
We have previously shown how to socially integrate a fish robot into a group of zebrafish thanks to biomimetic behavioural models. The models have to be calibrated on experimental data to present correct behavioural features. This calibration is essential ...
SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG2018Closed-loop interactions between a shoal of zebrafish and a group of robotic fish in a circular corridor
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet
Collective behavior based on self-organization has been observed in populations of animals from insects to vertebrates. These findings have motivated engineers to investigate approaches to control autonomous multi-robot systems able to reproduce collective ...
Springer Verlag2018Design of a modular robotic system that mimics small fish locomotion and body movements for ethological studies
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet, Bertrand Eric Collignon
Robotic animals are nowadays developed for various types of research, such as bioinspired robotics, biomimetics, and animal behavioral studies. The design of these robots poses great challenges as they often have to achieve very high-level performances in ...
Sciyo2017Automated Calibration of a Biomimetic Space-Dependent Model for Zebrafish and Robot Collective Behaviour in a Structured Environment
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet
Bio-hybrid systems made of robots and animals can be useful tools both for biology and robotics. To socially integrate robots into animal groups the robots should behave in a biomimetic manner with close loop interactions between robots and animals. Behavi ...
Springer2017Multi-robot control and tracking framework for bio-hybrid systems with closed-loop interaction
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet
Bio-mimetic robots can interact with groups of animals in bio-hybrid systems to study their behaviour by producing calibrated stimuli and by analysing their responses. Integrating a group of robots into a group of animals to mimic their behaviour is challe ...
2017ASSISI: Mixing Animals with Robots in a Hybrid Society
Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Martina Szopek
This paper describes the newly started EU-funded FP7 project ASSISI|bf, which deals with mixed societies: A honeybee society integrated with a group of stationary and interacting autonomous robotic nodes and a group of fish integrated in a society of auton ...
Springer2013Development of a mobile robot to study the collective behavior of zebrafish
Francesco Mondada, Philippe Rétornaz, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet
A robot accepted by animals as conspecifics is a very powerful tool in behavioral biology, particularly in studies of gregarious animals. In this paper we present a robotic zebrafish designed for experiments on the collective animal behavior. The robot con ...
