Researchers have developed a novel approach for an amoeba-inspired autonomous walking robot to classify ground conditions without using visual sensors. The system integrates artificial proprioception, utilizing a three-axis accelerometer and eight foot pressure sensors, combined with reservoir computing. This multimodal sensing allows the robot to accurately distinguish between flat and rough terrain, even amidst sensor fluctuations caused by dynamic movements, and enables it to adapt its walking gait accordingly.
