Many animals can navigate toward a goal they cannot see based on an internal
representation of that goal in the brain's spatial maps. These maps are organized around …

This review article aims to address common research questions in hexapod robotics. How
can we build intelligent autonomous hexapod robots that can exploit their biomechanics …

Neuronal signals that are relevant for spatial navigation have been described in many
species,,,,,,,,–. However, a circuit-level understanding of how such signals interact to guide …

To navigate towards a food source, animals frequently combine odor cues about source
identity with wind direction cues about source location. Where and how these two cues are …

Across species, navigation is crucial for finding both resources and shelter. In vertebrates,
the hippocampus supports memory-guided goal-directed navigation, whereas in arthropods …

To navigate, we must continuously estimate the direction we are headed in, and we must
correct deviations from our goal. Direction estimation is accomplished by ring attractor …

Quantifying the behavior of small animals traversing long distances in complex
environments is one of the most difficult tracking scenarios for computer vision. Tiny and low …

Using odors to find food and mates is one of the most ancient and highly conserved
behaviors. Arthropods from flies to moths to crabs use broadly similar strategies to navigate …

The central complex in the brain of insects is a group of midline-spanning neuropils at the
interface between sensory and premotor tasks of the brain. It is involved in sleep control …

Ball-rolling dung beetles are known to integrate multiple cues in order to facilitate their
straight-line orientation behaviour. Recent work has suggested that orientation cues are …
