| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The mobile robot ability to navigate autonomously in its environment is very important. Even though the advances in technology, robot self-localization and goal directed navigation in complex environments are still challenging tasks. It has been well known that rats accurately and rapidly navigate in a complex space by localizing themselves about the surrounding environmental cues. We developed an algorithm by which the robot learned to imitate the rat’s decision-making by mapping the rat’s brain signals into its own actions. Finally, the robot learned to integrate the internal states as well as external sensors to localize and navigate in the complex environment.
