On Jun 27, 2023 – Our stick insect robot, called ‘Black Mirror,’ was published in Advanced Science News on the topic of ‘Stick insects move robotics forward.’ This work draws inspiration from stick insect locomotion to teach robots how to walk using a novel system of self-organized limb movement. Initially, we tracked the joint and Read more about Our stick insect robot was published in Advanced Science News.[…]

On June 6-9, 2023 – We joined The 11th International Symposium on Adaptive Motion of Animals and Machines (AMAM). This event focuses on understanding mechanisms for the adaptive behavior of animals which helps us realize the behavior of machines, including experimenting on machines to find new views on biological systems. We presented our robotics research, Read more about AMAM2023 – The 11th International Symposium on Adaptive Motion of Animals and Machines[…]
Our lab hosted an international internship student (Mr. Daniel Mauricio Fernandez Gonzalez from Embodied AI&Neurorobotics Lab, University of Southern Denmark, Denmark) for 1 month (May 2023). He developed neural control and learning for quadruped locomotion and tested his method on our quadruped robot B1.
