Abstract:Conventional model theories are not suitable to control soft-bodied robots as deformable materials present rapidly changing behaviors. Neuromorphic electronics are now entering the field of robotics, demonstrating that a highly integrated device can mimic the fundamental properties of a sensory synaptic system, including learning and proprioception. This research work focuses on the physical implementation of a reservoir computing-based network to actuate a soft-bodied robot. More specifically, modeling the hy… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
