A novel insect-inspired optical compass sensor for a hexapod walking robot

IROS 2017poster

In an outdoor autonomous navigational context, classic compass sensors such as magnetometers have to deal with unpredictable magnetic disturbances. In this paper, we propose to get inspiration from the insect navigational abilities to design a celestial compass based on linear polarization of ultrav…

A novel hyperacute gimbal eye to implement precise hovering and target tracking on a quadrotor

ICRA 2016

This paper presents a new minimalist bio-inspired artificial eye of only 24 pixels, able to locate accurately a target placed in its small field of view (±10°). The eye is mounted on a very light custom-made gimbal system which makes the eye able to track faithfully a moving target. We have shown, t
