This paper discusses how a robot can develop its state vector according to the complexity of the interactions with its environment. A method for controlling the complexity is prop...
— We have developed a new class of continuously flexible snake-like robots, called active cannulas, that consist of several telescoping pre-curved superelastic tubes. The device...

— To realize natural human-robot interactions and investigate the developmental mechanism of human communication, an effective approach is to construct models by which a robot im...
— Recent years are seeing a renewed interest in general multi-robot architectures, capable of automating coordination. However, few architectures explore integration of multiple ...
