Abstract :
Influenced by the results obtained in neuroscience and biology, we have introduced a model (AIRM) that, inspired by biological rhythms, adaptively controls a behavior based robotic system (BBRS). The proposed model is implemented by means of an NSP (neuro symbolic processor). Since the NSP can be implemented on FPGA, we can take advantage of a parallel execution of the AIRM model and then an improvement of the BBRS performance.
