Toward 30-gram Autonomous Indoor Aircraft: Vision-based Obstacle Avoidance and Altitude Control

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey

We aim at developing autonomous micro-flyers capable of navigating within houses or small built environments. The severe weight and energy constraints of indoor flying platforms led us to take inspiration from flying insects for the selection of sensors, s ...

The embodiment of cockroach behaviour in a micro-robot

Masoud Asadpour, Simon Garnier

Autonomous robots may some day be able to behave like an animal, be accepted by the animal as a conspecific and influence the individual as well as the collective behaviour of the animal and its conspecifics. With this objective in mind we report here the ...

Vision-based Navigation from Wheels to Wings

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Antoine Beyeler

We describe an incremental approach towards the development of autonomous indoor flyers that use only vision to navigate in textured environments. In order to cope with the severe weight and energy constraints of such systems, we use spiking neural control ...

Evolving Vision-based Flying Robots

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey

We describe a new experimental approach whereby an indoor flying robot evolves the ability to navigate in a textured room using only visual information and neuromorphic control. The architecture of a spiking neural circuit, which is connected to the vision ...

Web Interfacing for Task Supervision and Specification

Nicola Tomatis

The Autonomous Systems Lab at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) is engaged in mobile robotics research. The labs research focuses mainly on indoor localization and map building, outdoor locomotion and navigation, and micro mobile r ...

Interactions between Art and Mobile Robotic System Engineering

Francesco Mondada

The field of mobile robotics offers a new medium for public entertainment and art. Mobile robots can move, react, and interact in the real world, generating behaviors that can be used as a new artistic medium quite different from sculptures, drawings or vi ...

Incremental Robot Shaping

Dario Floreano, Mirco Dorigo, Joseba Urzelai

We propose a modular architecture for autonomous robots which allows for the implementation of basic behavioral modules by both programming and training, and accommodates for an evolutionary development of the interconnections among modules. This architect ...
