Metachronal waves in cellular automata: Cilia-like manipulation in actuator arrays (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Georgilas, I., Adamatzky, A., Barr, D., Dudek, P., & Melhuish, C. (2013, September). Metachronal waves in cellular automata: Cilia-like manipulation in actuator arrays. Paper presented at VI International Workshop on Nature Inspired Cooperative Strategies for Optimization (NICSO 2013), Canterbury, UK

Paramecium is covered by cilia. It uses the cilia to swim and transport food particles to its mouth. The cilia are synchronised into a collective action by propagating membrane potential and mechan- ical properties of their underlying membrane and th...

UAV horizon tracking using memristors and cellular automata visual processing (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Georgilas, I., Gale, E., Adamatzky, A., & Melhuish, C. (2013, August). UAV horizon tracking using memristors and cellular automata visual processing. Paper presented at TAROS 2013, The 14th Conference Towards Autonomous Robotic Systems, St Anne's College, Oxford, UK

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV)s can control their altitude and orientation using the horizon as a reference. Typically this task is performed via edge-detection vision processing techniques implemented in a computer or digital electronics. We demonst...

Tzemanaki, A., Gao, X., Pipe, A. G., Melhuish, C., & Dogramadzi, S. (2013, June). Hand exoskeleton for remote control of minimally invasive surgical anthropomorphic instrumentation. Poster presented at The 6th Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics, London, UK

Manipulating with excitations: Waves or gliders? (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Georgilas, I., Adamatzky, A., & Melhuish, C. (2013, May). Manipulating with excitations: Waves or gliders?. Paper presented at ICRA 2013 Workshop - Unconventional Approaches to Robotics, Automation and Control, Inspired by Nature (UARACIN), Karlsruhe, Germany

Excitable media are classical examples of un- conventional computing devices. Using waves to represent information and wave interactions to represent information processing, excitable media achieve computation versatility comparable to traditional te...
