Engineering the Ultimate Robotic Fish

- When Professor Maurizio Porfiri looks at fish, he sees more than just a bunch of aquatic animals - he sees an animal that could someday replace the rat as the key to better studying and understanding human and animal behaviors in laboratory research. But fish can be unpredictable, which is why Porfiri has dedicated his life's work to building the ultimate robotic fish.

I kinda laughed when he said he would deploy robotic fish in the ocean to ward other fish off in case there was an oil spill.
Nicely done NY, in Glasgow University I asked my supervisor what we use our 3D printer for and the response was "Just to show off." I wish I had more people like you in our department.
A potential use for these robot predator fish could be to deter Asian carp from crossing major waterways that lead into the Great Lakes. From what I understand, the risk of invasive carp entering the Great Lakes is a pretty big concern at the moment.
Motherboard does like robots which is nice
This Prof. Seems like a really awesome guy.
From the fishes' perspective, this is about a mission to build the most terrifying possible, robotic aquatic nightmare.
Great ideas! Happy to See some people like those
looks super baked looking at those fishies :D
ReflexEdits lmao, thought the same thing xD
An interesting and innovative approach to researching animal behaviors. I do wonder which environmental factors change when only a physical/mechanical robot are in place of a live test subject.
Professor Maurizio Porfiri feeds zebrafish alcohol and/or caffeine, then chases them around with a robotic predator fish he's designed in his lab.
***** Talk about terraforming
If I where a scientist, I would just place a screen next to the fish pool with video footage of the correct predator footage. Its simple and repeatable, and doesn't require a robot fish, although they are very cool.
BRILLIANT!
such a cool video
Where are the said "open-source" files for the robots? I can't seem to find them anywhere.
Cláudio Sampaio Where are the said "open-source" files for the robots? I can't seem to find them anywhere
Me too, where are the sources? I 'm looking for but it seems impossible to find it.
Next level bass fishing
He has the most amazing accent I've ever heard.
Cool and really intresting ;)
Guy's got an accent, but you didn't need the subtitles. Poor guy.
I have 5 zebrafish in my fishtank, they are really great fish. Its funny because when I turn their light off at night, they forget about each other in the dark. They go nuts in the morning when I turn their light back on, sometimes they fight.
I can imagine this on a bigger scale like a robotic shark that you control and can ride under water or a whale!
have you seen the robotic dolphin by edge innovations? crazy how six years can change technology!
very nice project but i have one doubt that how you are controlling the fish wirelessly bcoz the wireless signal will be very weak in underwater?
low frequency + pure-ish water
gimme more of the design,i would like it to be matched with my homemade shark design
you up for scuba?
There will be a time when Sharks have a freaken laser attached to their freaken heads. I just know it.
Working 100 hours a week.WTF, dude
0.26 gaaaaanjaaaa yeeeaaa ^^
It's cool and all, I just think controlling fishes indirectly with robots is awfully specific to be of much use.
addirittura i sottotitoli? dai si capisce
Seems rather basic, would be fun to work on and get paid for it though.
Don't think this is exactly going to work effectively however; the science behind it is limited and only lets the robot move basically ( e.g. doesn't yet change the way it moves to show hostility).
Can I have a few robotic Longnose Butterflyfish
Okay but, what happens when the fish become self aware and destroy all of the fish in the ocean? Now you're looking at riots in Japan
cool
what about military use for scanning harbors?
Edvard Hansson They already have them.
And now to install a machinegun on it and get that sweet delicious funding from Darpa. :^)
Robotic laser sharks.
Well, what they call a life's work to make that fish model without the intelligence of a fish , I can build it at home over a weekend ..
Dude does not need subtitles.
hmm.. i never thought of getting fish drunk for 'science'
a few ounces in my fish tank should be enough to get them fucking fighting and puking, right?
2:45 hohoho
It will only have been perfected when it also tastes like real fish.
fartzinwind Then it wouldn't be a robot, it would be a bioengineered organism.
NoctisAugustus Alchemy < Chemistry, Robotics < Bioengineering ... same things different degrees of depth in the field, and different tools. It doesn't have to be totally bio-engineered to to be tasty. You could do 3d printing with protein to add a layer of deliciousness.
Well cool work but basing a project on the assumption that there are always going to be oil spills is not the greatest motivator... Anything else this could be used for?

For the amount of views there is not many comments
I looked at the comments and was very disappointed. So here is my contribution:
Oh noo.. killer fish robots.. they are going to take over the world... skynet!! Ooooo!!!
It's nice but it seems hat there could be more efficient ways of solving the problems that they mentioned.
Like for the alcohol experiment, they could just use a video of the predator.. And it seems really expensive to have a bunch of robots scare away fish from an oilspill..
Why not just cause some strong motions inside the water to scare the fish... =/
chikkachinijohannady Video might not be as effective as it would limit the amount of interaction with the fish to only visual while the robot, for example, could also allow physical contact. Correct me if I'm wrong.
What about sound waves?
chikkachinijohannady Seems you have a knack for replacing good ideas with poor ideas.
chikkachinijohannady do you know if fish see video the same way as humans?
the purpose of scaring away the fish if there was a oil spill is to get them out of the way and if its a fish we eat we should definitely make such they don't get contaminated to make sure we don't get sick and if you tried what you said making a strong motion in the water that's not going to scare fish they are uses to waves and that is basically a wave and also they are adapted to be resistant to waves so they would keep on swimming.
Clumsy, this is mimicry, clockwork 18th century automaton ...
Create environment, simulate conditions, evolve in computers, build.
how to make robo fish
He is italian, right?

Never heard of a "Zebrafish". I believe the proper name is "Zebra Danio". Hard to take this study seriously.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebrafish
Ohh he wikepedia'd you OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH😂
This would be perfect if psychology was science...
Meh, not impressed. The end goal of influencing fish is creative though.
Amusing biomimicry.
Now the fish suddenly goes ua-cam.com/video/Wnind-udRZI/v-deo.html
An lucky of thingking is an the God's mercy.
the title and the presented content were a bit offset i think...too much expectations
Can you eat it?
SuperMrdumm Yeah but you might chip a tooth or two.
