Self-Organization, Embodiment, and Biologically Inspired Robotics
Robotics researchers increasingly agree that ideas from biology and self-organization can strongly benefit the design of autonomous robots. Biological organisms have evolved to perform and survive in…

Stable dynamic walking over uneven terrain
TLDR
A constructive control design for stabilization of non-periodic trajectories of underactuated robots, using a transverse linearization about the desired motion and providing exponential orbital stability of the target trajectory of the original nonlinear system.

New Robotics: Design Principles for Intelligent Systems
TLDR
Artificial evolution together with morphogenesis is not only nice to have but is in fact a necessary tool for designing embodied agents and the principles of ecological balance, and sensory-motor coordination, are argued.

Real-World, Real-Time Robotic Grasping with Convolutional Neural Networks
TLDR
This work investigates the use of Deep Learning to develop a real-time scheme on a physical robot, using a convolutional neural network trained in a supervised manner to regress grasping coordinates from RGB-D data.

Goal-Directed Navigation of an Autonomous Flying Robot Using Biologically Inspired Cheap Vision
TLDR
Inspired by the visual navigation of flying insects, a model of vision-based navigation using Elementary Motion Detectors (EMDs) is presented, showing that goal-directed navigation can be potentially achieved by simple visual processing, and that the design flexibility of this approach leads to high adaptivity to the given task-environment.
Whole body emotion expressions for KOBIAN humanoid robot — preliminary experiments with different Emotional patterns —
TLDR
A new whole body emotion expressing bipedal humanoid robot, named KOBIAN, which is also capable to express human-like emotions and confirmed the robot can clearly express its emotions, and that very high recognition ratios are possible.

Navigation in an autonomous flying robot by using a biologically inspired visual odometer
TLDR
A biologically inspired model of the bee's visual odometer based on Elementary Motion Detectors (EMDs) is proposed, and results from goal-directed navigation experiments with an autonomous flying robot platform developed specifically for this purpose are presented.

Towards Bipedal Jogging as a Natural Result of Optimizing Walking Speed for Passively Compliant Three-Segmented Legs
TLDR
This research investigates how compliance and damping can deliberately be used in humanoid robots to improve walking capabilities and finds a good match between real robot experiments and numerical simulations.

Minimalistic control of biped walking in rough terrain
TLDR
This article tackles with the problem of bipedal locomotion in rough terrains by using a minimalistic control architecture for the compass gait walking model using an open-loop sinusoidal oscillation of hip motor, which induces basic walking stability without sensory feedback.
