Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A stable flight drone equipped with a speaker and incorporating a gyro sensor was created. In addition, we developed a crow type glider with a wing made of stuff, and confirmed the flight performance by wind tunnel experiment etc. Furthermore, the neck and the tail were movable, and the stuffed robot equipped with the speaker was created. In addition to these hardware, I constructed a data set of Japanese and Singapore crow calls as a software aspect. By playing their crow calls from multiple speakers, it showed the possibility that the crow could be guided to any place. When presented to the crow using these, it was possible to induce action such as the crow approaching the robot's close proximity.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究により、鳴き声とロボット等を用いることで、カラスの行動を意図的にコントロールできることの可能性を見出した。この研究成果は、カラスによる様々な被害を防ぐ手段への応用が期待される。また、情報技術を介した人間と動物の新しいインタラクション研究の端緒を開くことにつながった。さらに、ロボットを通じて、カラスを理解する装置の試作となり、動物を深く理解する手段となりうる。
