Biomimetic actuators are then the focus of Part Three, with vision systems, tissue growth and muscles all discussed. Finally, a wide range of applications are investigated in Part Four, where biomimetic technology and artificial intelligence are reviewed for such uses as bio-inspired climbing robots and multi-robot systems, microrobots with CMOS IC neural networks locomotion control, central pattern generators (CPG's) and biologically inspired antenna arrays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Trung Dung Ngo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0081002491\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780081002490\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Woodhead Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 394\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Trung Dung Ngo","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48013698302207,"sku":"9780081002490","price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_abc27c2a-ebe5-46cc-847d-8aad9706198d.jpg?v=1767744210","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/biomimetic-technologies-trung-dung-ngo-9780081002490","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
