An evaluation method for insect sensorimotor models using an insect-size mobile robot

摘要

In this paper an evaluation method by using an insect-size mobile robot for insect sensorimotor models is proposed. The method can be advantageous especially when dealing with environments and sensors, which are difficult to express mathematically. Biological observations are used to build an olfactory sensorimotor model and the model is evaluated using the presented evaluation method. It is confirmed that this evaluation method is effective for investigations of sensorimotor systems.
