Memory use in insect visual navigation

TS Collett, M Collett - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2002‏ - nature.com
The navigational strategies that are used by foraging ants and bees to reach a goal are
similar to those of birds and mammals. Species from all these groups use path integration …

The internal maps of insects

B Webb - Journal of Experimental Biology, 2019‏ - journals.biologists.com
Insect navigation is strikingly geometric. Many species use path integration to maintain an
accurate estimate of their distance and direction (a vector) to their nest and can store the …

Visual route following for tiny autonomous robots

T van Dijk, C De Wagter, GCHE de Croon - Science Robotics, 2024‏ - science.org
Navigation is an essential capability for autonomous robots. In particular, visual navigation
