Drawing on ecological insights, this book introduces a groundbreaking framework for designing long-duration robots capable of operating in unpredictable environments. Magnus Egerstedt presents the concept of "robot ecology," emphasizing that a robot's behavior is shaped by its surroundings. By focusing on survivability constraints rather than just optimal task performance, the author outlines a method for creating safe and effective robotic behaviors. The book also details the development of the SlothBot, an energy-efficient robot designed for environmental monitoring, offering a holistic approach to robot design in natural settings.
