Robot Talk Episode 154 – Visual navigation in insects and robots, with Andrew Philippides
Overview
Claire chatted to Andrew Philippides from the University of Sussex about what we can learn from ants and bees to improve robot navigation.
Andrew Philippides is a Professor of Biorobotics at the University of Sussex, where he co-directs the Centre for Computational Neuroscience and Robotics and the be.AI Leverhulme Doctoral centre for Biomimetic Embodied AI. His research combines biological experiments with robotics, modelling, and machine learning to understand how intelligent behaviour emerges from the interaction of body and brain acting in an environment. Focussing on visual navigation, he aims to understand the navigation and learning abilities of ants and bees to develop novel AI and biorobotic algorithms.
