Multifunctional physical reservoir computing in soft tensegrity robots
Ryo Terajima, Katsuma Inoue, Kohei Nakajima +1
Recent studies have demonstrated that the dynamics of physical systems can be utilized for the desired information processing under the framework of physical reservoir computing (P…
Haptic Perception via the Dynamics of Flexible Body Inspired by an Ostrich's Neck
Kazashi Nakano, Katsuma Inoue, Yasuo Kuniyoshi +1
In biological systems, both skin sensitivity and body flexibility play crucial roles in haptic perception. Fully soft robots often suffer from structural fragility and delayed sens…
Informational Embodiment: Computational role of information structure in codes and robots
Alexandre Pitti, Kohei Nakajima, Yasuo Kuniyoshi
The body morphology plays an important role in the way information is perceived and processed by an agent. We address an information theory (IT) account on how the precision of sen…
Embedding bifurcations into pneumatic artificial muscle
Nozomi Akashi, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Taketomo Jo +4
Harnessing complex body dynamics has been a long-standing challenge in robotics. Soft body dynamics is a typical example of high complexity in interacting with the environment. An…
