Reactive Searching and Infotaxis in Odor Source Localization
Figure 1
Experimental set-up of the cyborg's search task.
(A) Schematic general set-up: the cyborg starts 2 m from the pheromone source in a 2.54 m region. A fan provides a wind blowing from the top (towards the cyborg). (B) Photo of our cyborg: a Khepera III robot with a moth fixed in a styrofoam roll. Zoom-in 1: top of the styrofoam roll with the insect's head and the two antennae on the outside. Zoom-in 2: one antenna enters the tip of a glass electrode. Photographs by H. Raguet — INRIA.
