Millionenförderung: Roboter lernen von der Natur

Das Team um Justus Piater am Institut für Informatik ist an einem neuen Emerging-Fields-Konsortium beteiligt, das vom Wissenschaftsfonds FWF mit über 5 Millionen Euro gefördert wird. Die Forscher:innen untersuchen, wie unterschiedliche Körperbauten, ökologische Nischen und kognitive Fähigkeiten die Entstehung neuer Verhaltensweisen prägen und wie das für die Entwicklung von neuen Robotersystemen hilfreich sein kann.

#FWF Free Write Friday: The Circle of Life

Space ants, no light, no atmosphere, ersatz of everything, no longer human, dogs of war... In his sleep he remembers... In the immensity of space, in the cruiser armed to the core, he remembers: a clear stream flowing from high above in the icy air of an alpine Spring, snow still powdering the valleys, and her smile, her lips in the thrall of happiness.

#FWF Free Write Friday: Gratitude

Was it luck? Was it the hand of destiny? The rocks had fallen, in a shower of dust, mud, broken trees and the sound of an angry Earth. The big menhir had stood still, protecting him.

#FWF Free Write Friday: Image Prompt

Does this envelope hold a message for you or someone else? In the words of John Mayer… “say what you need to say…” My dear love, I know, this will be unexpected, after all, old fashion mail has gone... a bit out of fashion, has it not? But this is Mars! The kind crew that gave us that invitation, when we wrote to them how pleased we were about the lunar probe - do you remember, only six months ago?

#FWF Free Write Friday: Trust

"Follow the traces of blood" he said, and she did. Step by step, along the ever rising path, below the high cliffs, she found little drops of scarlet wetness. A large rock stopped her, it was impassable. On the rock was an arrow, showing the chasm, all the way down to the valley. Below the arrow were his initials. He had left his mark. She looked down the abyss: so far down she would fall. She jumped.
