Abstract In many robotic applications, softness leads to improved performance, robustness, and safety, while lowering manufacturing cost, increasing versatility, and simplifying control. The advantages of soft robots derive from the […]
Abstract In the context of embodied artificial intelligence, morphological computation refers to processes, which are conducted by the body (and environment) that otherwise would have to be performed by the […]
Abstract There are numerous examples that show how the exploitation of the body’s physical properties can lift the burden on the brain. Examples are grasping, swimming, locomotion, and motion detection. […]
Abstract The question of how an agent is affected by its embodiment has attracted growing attention in recent years. A new field of artificial intelligence has emerged, which is based […]
Abstract The field of embodied intelligence emphasises the importance of the morphology and environment with respect to the behaviour of a cognitive system. The contribution of the morphology to the […]
