Abstract

Insects can adapt to the constantly changing environment and have remarkably flight ability with the simple nervous system. To understand these abilities, there are many robots controlled by insects. In this study, we propose the multicopter controlled by bumblebee. We expect that this multicopter can move in three-dimentional space and inspect adaptation abilities of flying insects. The input signal to this multicopter is flight muscle action potential. We expect that mesuring flight muscle action potential allows us to judge quantiatively the insect's motion. We tried discrimination turning motion by flight muscle action potential for the first step.
