  4. Welcome and description of the Meeting Objectives

  5. Taxonomy of locomotion mechanisms and matching with enabling technologies WHAT DID WE ACHIEVE AT THE LAST TIME:The Work Flow UoB FORTH UoP SSSA UT Prototypes

  6. PROPOSAL FOR WORKING BETWEEN NOVEMBER 02 AND MARCH 03 Building a reasonable biomechanical model of polychaete and inchworms, and of the GI boundary conditions to guide the design of a working biomimetic device and estimate the influence of different technical solutions

  7. IMPORTANT QUESTIONS (1/2) • Which mechanism for body motion (peristaltic, moving wave, random? others?) • Which type of legs and leg motion (piston-like, sweeping) ? • Which type of adhesion mechanism (vacuum, hooks, glue, clamping)?

  8. IMPORTANT QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED IMPORTANT QUESTIONS (2/2) • Which mechanical structure for the body (spine, balloon-like, others)? • Which mechanical structure for the legs? • Which shape, dimensions (total length, diameter) and other parameters (legs disposition, legs number, etc)?

  9. IMPORTANT QUESTIONS (2/2) Selected Models: polychaete and inchworm-like transversal waves longitudinal waves Theoretical models: FORTH and SSSA Experimental set up: IHCI, UoT Prototypes: UBAH, UoP, SSSA, Forth

  10. 00 06 12 18 24 30 WorkPackage Overview: Where we are 36 WP0 Project Management Study of locomotion mechanisms of lower animal forms Modelling and design of artificial structures which replicate biological mechanisms Enabling technologies and principles for fabricating biomimetic components Understanding and replicating biological perception of lower animal forms Control strategy and control implementation Fabrication of prototypes of biomimetic locomotion machines Experiments on prototypes of biomimetic locomotion machines Dissemination and Implementation WP1 WP2 WP3 WP4 WP5 WP6 WP7 WP8

  11. 00 06 12 18 24 30 M1: Selection and design of the preferred biomimetic locomotion principle to be implemented M2: Selection and design of the perception-reaction strategy to be implemented M3: Fabrication of the biomimetic locomotion prototype (or BLU) M4: Testing of the biomimetic locomotion prototype and overall validation Where we are 36 WP0 WP1 WP2 WP3 WP4 WP5 WP6 WP7 WP8

  12. Administrative and Scientific accomplishments • Preparation of deliverables (month 6): • Project Presentation – done • DUP – in progress • D1 – almost done; to be shared and accepted • UoT  UoT + IHCI at Steinbeis University (with Novineon Healthcare technology as subcontract) – almost done • Consortium Agreement – comments expected

  13. Next Deliverables and Deadlines

  14. BIOLOCH Review Meeting From Dr. Lacombe: Your project review will take place in Alicante (Spain) either on Monday 7 July or on Wednesday 9 July, the middle day of Tuesday 8 July being devoted to a Neuro-IT workshop to which you should also participate. The review event is coupled to the Twelfth Annual Computational Neuroscience Meeting CNS*2003 from July 5 to July 7, also in Alicante. Please inform before end of February about the following issues: 1) whether your project makes a presentation at CNS on Monday 7th July (the project review duration is only 2 hours) 2) whether you have a preference for your review to be on Monday 7 or on Wednesday 9 July (we will try to take that into account, but without any promise of success at this stage)
