Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have developed a comprehensive research about combined with fisheries and systems science to construct the fish behavior models under 'a principle of rate-limiting fluctuations and behaviors' for biomimetics. We achieved success developing the foudamental technologies about imaging and its processing systems which can extract the mathematical datas from the water tank experiments under the various physical conditions. From these obtained results, we could make a modified fish behavior model dx/dt= f(x)activity + b in which we have compared with numerical simulations and water tank experiments about the behavior in the fish net model, LED light source model and so on. We have eventually made up the prototype small underwater robot with above mentioned technologies in which it can mimic the fish behaviors.
