| Research Abstract |
Multi-sensory integration is necessary for animals behaving adaptively in real environment. We analyzed mechanisms of multi-sensory integration of odor tracking male silkmoths with an insect BMI, insect-controlled robot, operated by them. Our results indicate that both visual (optic flow) and bilateral olfactory inputs are necessary for steering correctly toward the odor source, even with perturbations. This multi-sensory-based steering occurred only when the moth received odorant and performed straight-line walking, an initial behavioral state of the odor searching behavior of the moth.
