Steer'n Roll: A Stereoscopic Flow-Sensing Strategy for Planktonic Prey Detection and Capture
Tommaso Redaelli, Eva Kanso, Christophe Eloy
Planktonic organisms such as copepods sense swimming prey and sinking food particles through the hydrodynamic disturbances they generate. However, because these flow fields are oft…

A critical assessment of reinforcement learning methods for microswimmer navigation in complex flows
Selim Mecanna, Aurore Loisy, Christophe Eloy
Navigating in a fluid flow while being carried by it, using only information accessible from on-board sensors, is a problem commonly faced by small planktonic organisms. It is also…

Visual collective behaviors on spherical robots
Diego Castro, Christophe Eloy, Franck Ruffier
The implementation of collective motion, traditionally, disregard the limited sensing capabilities of an individual, to instead assuming an omniscient perception of the environment…
