Abstract:
Inspiring by nature and extracting its fundamental principles to address field challenges innovatively. This workshop delves into cutting-edge realms of bio-inspired and bio-hybrid robotics, where nature meets technology to birth innovative solutions. It aims to cover a wide range of topics, such as the design principles drawn from living organisms that give robots unprecedented adaptability, agility, and efficiency. It will focus on the development of biologically inspired solutions, in terms of actuation strategies, sensing, and on-board intelligence, exploring the potential of real-world species skills, toward the application into field robotics. Moving beyond the replication of animal locomotion strategies, the dialogue will encompass the integration of living organisms and artificial components, expanding the horizons of conventional robotics. Scrutinizing the potential of these systems in real-world applications, like environmental monitoring and ecosystems preservation, engaging discussions will revolve around, challenges, and prospects in this topic. This interdisciplinary workshop, where experts from different fields (biology, robotics and computer science) converge to unveil the untapped potential of nature-inspired robotics, sets out to chart the course towards a future where technology and biology will harmoniously coexist, revolutionizing the landscape of robotic innovation. It aims to unite early-stage and senior researchers and industry, featuring expert talks and as well as opportunities for attendees to share their knowledge and develop new ideas, on enabling robotics into the field and fostering innovation.
