Supercapacitors in bioelectrochemical systems (2019)
Book Chapter

Energy and metabolism (2018)
Book Chapter

© Oxford University Press, 2018 and University of Tartu Press, 2012. Energy resulting from metabolism is essential for any living system-from single-cell to multicellular organisms. This also applies to symbiotic robots (SymBots), which function util... Read More about Energy and metabolism.

Towards fully biodegradable microbial fuel cells (2014)
Book Chapter

Introduction. In order to sustainably protect and manage the environment, a number of challenges need to be addressed, including: (i) the search for new sources of green energy; (ii) improving the efficiency of human waste treatment; and (iii) identi...

Microbial fuel cells: Scalability and their use in robotics (2011)
Book Chapter

This is probably the first written and relatively accurate description of microorganisms, made by the Roman scholar Marcus Terentius Varro (116-27 B.C.). It was then Anthony van Leeuwenhoek (ca. 1677) who, for the first time, observed little animals... Read More about Microbial fuel cells: Scalability and their use in robotics.

Book Chapter

Artificial symbiosis in EcoBots (2009)
Book Chapter

Truly autonomous robotic systems will be required to abstract energy from the environment in order to function. Energetic autonomy refers to the ability of an agent, to maintain itself in a viable state for long periods of time. Its behaviour must be... Read More about Artificial symbiosis in EcoBots.
