Video as the Language of Embodied Intelligence
Achieving general-purpose embodied intelligence remains a central challenge in artificial intelligence. While recent efforts have extended Large Language Models (LLMs) to robotics by incorporating additional modalities, these adaptations face critical limitations in perception, grounding, and …

Passivity-Based Hands Towards General-Purpose Robotic Manipulation
… applicability in the real world. The concept of embodied intelligence hypothesises that intelligent behaviours are largely due to physical interactions between a body and the environment. With the ability to embed intelligence into our manipulator design, complexity is more evenly distributed …

Bio-inspired soft robotic systems: Exploiting environmental interactions using embodied mechanics and sensory coordination
… suited to more human-centric applications. Embodied intelligence is a biologically inspired concept in which intelligence is a function of the entire system, not only the controller or `brain'. This thesis focuses on the use of embodied intelligence for the development of soft robots, with a …

Exploiting the Intrinsic Embodied Dynamics for Adaptive Robotic Behaviors
… current roboticists have utilized the concept of embodied intelligence for the development of adaptive robotic systems. This concept hypothesizes that intelligent behaviors result from the strict coupling of the physical interactions of the brain, the body and the environment. By utilizing the …

Program steering : improving adaptability and mode selection via dynamic analysis
… technique on simulated fish programs from MIT's Embodied Intelligence class and on robot control programs written in a month-long programming competition. The experiments show that the technique is domain independent and that augmenting programs via program steering can have a substantial …

Iterative and directed exploration of self-structuring embodied agents
… principles. In this context, the concept of embodied intelligence hypothesises that intelligent behaviours are the result of complex interactions between the brain, body (or morphology) and environment, rather than being driven purely by computational power in the brain. At the most basic …

Advancing Kinematic Control from Rigid Robots to Dynamic Bio-Inspired Systems for Adaptive Behaviours
… One promising approach to this challenge is embodied intelligence, where system behaviour emerges from the interaction between the brain, body, and environment. Yet, the embodiment of commercially available robots differs significantly from that of biological organisms. Most commercial robots …

Physical design cognition : an analytical study of exploratory model making to inform creative robotic interaction
… from the field of cognitive science about embodied cognition are true, then there is opportunity to rethink how CAD-CAM technologies can better harness the bodily based thinking involved in physical model making. To study how designers explore ideas when making models an experiment was run …

Function Follows Form: An Exploration of Robotic Embodiment through Geometry
… the brain, limiting the potential scope of “embodied intelligence” that is unique to robotics. This cognitivist approach to robot design is in-line with critiques from disability studies, which argues that assuming a single normative body ignores the diversity of human body-environment …

Soft Smart Interfaces for Bilateral Teleoperation with Distributed Tactile Haptic Feedback in Remote Medical Palpation
… interface itself. This is achieved thanks to the embodied intelligence of the implemented device due to the smart position of sensors able to exploit the non-linearities introduced by the soft silicones used during manufacturing. All elements of such an interface are tested individually in …
