Collision avoidance using a model of the locust LGMD neuron
The lobula giant movement detector (LGMD) system in the locust responds selectively to objects approaching the animal on a collision course. In earlier work we have presented a ne...

Reactive direction control for a mobile robot: a locust-like control of escape direction emerges when a bilateral pair of model
Locusts possess a bilateral pair of uniquely identifiable visual neurons that respond vigorously to the image of an approaching object. These neurons are called the lobula giant m...

Flying over the reality gap: From simulated to real indoor airships
Because of their ability to naturally float in the air, indoor airships (often called blimps) constitute an appealing platform for research in aerial robotics. However, when confr...
