Summary:
Researchers tapped advances in
real-time tracking software and robotics to design and test the first
closed-loop control system featuring a bioinspired robotic replica interacting
in three dimensions with live zebrafish. The system allows the robotic replica
to both 'see' and mimic the behavior of live zebrafish in real time. Robots
previously have been deployed alongside live animals to better understand
animal behavior but the encounters were unidirectional.
