Researchers at Robotic Systems Laboratory’s (EPFL) Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Laussane have a developed a robot that looks like a fish and can seamlessly swim with other fish, eventually leading their direction. The trial used zebrafish and was successful in a range of aquariums with differing criteria. The robotic fish successfully integrated into a community, copying “appearance, movement and vibration”.
