Short description of project
The main goal of ASSISI is to establish a robotic society that is able to develop communication channels to animal societies (honeybees & fish swarms) on its own.
These robots will adapt by evolutionary algorithms until they have learned to interact with animals in a desired way. This new technology is aimed to lay new foundations on the way in which humans can interfere with animal societies in order to manage the environment.
The researchers expect their work to have impact on agriculture, live stock management and environmental protection. In parallel, the mixed societies of animals and robots will represent a novel kind of bio-hybrid ICT system, as the animals will enrich the capabilities of the machines and vice versa.
