“…However, the robotics research often considered to exemplify the application of ecological concepts like affordances to robotics is generally either oriented toward building representations of affordances (Şahin et al, 2007;Zech et al, 2017;Andries et al, 2018;Hassanin et al, 2018) or toward biomimetic implementations of specific animal behaviors or capabilities (Beer, 1997;Cruse et al, 1998;Webb and Consilvio, 2001;Ijspeert, 2014) which then act as models for testing biological hypotheses (Webb, 2001(Webb, , 2006. When non-biomimetic robotics research oriented toward coordinating simple controllers is considered (e.g., Braitenberg, 1986;Brooks, 1986;Raibert, 1986;Arkin, 1998), it is inevitably decades old.…”
