Imitating metabolism: Energy autonomy in biologically inspired robots
This paper reports on the initial work to produce an artificial metabolic system for an energetically autonomous robot using a Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC). We describe the fuel cell developed in our laboratory and demonstrate that it is feasible to provide sufficient power for a mobile robot platform to execute photo tactic 'pulsed' behaviour.

Abstract

This paper reports on the initial work to produce an artificial metabolic system for an energetically autonomous robot using a Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC). We describe the fuel cell developed in our laboratory and demonstrate that it is feasible to provide sufficient power for a mobile robot platform to execute photo tactic 'pulsed' behaviour.
