This paper presents a fuzzy logic controller by which a robot can imitate biological behaviors such as avoiding obstacles or following walls. The proposed structure is implemented by integrating multiple ultrasonic sensors into a robot to collect data from a realworld environment. The decisions that govern the robot's behavior and autopilot navigation are driven by a field programmable gate array-(FPGA-) based fuzzy logic controller. The validity of the proposed controller was demonstrated by simulating three realworld scenarios to test the bionic behavior of a custom-built robot. The results revealed satisfactorily intelligent performance of the proposed fuzzy logic controller. The controller enabled the robot to demonstrate intelligent behaviors in complex environments. Furthermore, the robot's bionic functions satisfied its design objectives.
