Bidirectional interactions facilitate the integration of a robot into a shoal of zebrafish Danio rerio

Francesco Mondada, Frank Bonnet, Vaios Papaspyros, Bertrand Eric Collignon

Many studies on collective animal behavior seek to identify the individual rules that underlie collective patterns. However, it was not until the recent advancements of micro-electronic and embedded systems that scientists were able to create mixed groups ...

Multiple nest entrances alter foraging and information transfer in ants

Bertrand Eric Collignon

The ecological success of ants relies on their ability to discover and collectively exploit available resources. In this process, the nest entrances are key locations at which foragers transfer food and information about the surrounding environment. We ass ...

Design of a modular robotic system that mimics small fish locomotion and body movements for ethological studies

Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet, Bertrand Eric Collignon

Robotic animals are nowadays developed for various types of research, such as bioinspired robotics, biomimetics, and animal behavioral studies. The design of these robots poses great challenges as they often have to achieve very high-level performances in ...

How mimetic should a robotic fish be to socially integrate into zebrafish groups ?

Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Frank Bonnet, Bertrand Eric Collignon

Biomimetic robots are promising tools in animal behavioural studies. If they are socially integrated in a group of animals, they can produce calibrated social stimuli to test the animal responses. However, the design of such social robots is challenging as ...
