Insects such as flies or bees, with their miniature brains, are able to control highly aerobatic
flight maneuvres and to solve spatial vision tasks, such as avoiding collisions with obstacles …

Due to methodological limitations neural function is mostly studied under open-loop
conditions. Normally, however, nervous systems operate in closed-loop where sensory input …

Biological principles of closed-loop motor control have gained much interest over the last
years for their potential applications in robotic system. Although some progress has been …

The blowfly Calliphora is one of the most sophisticated fliers in the animal kingdom. It
displays a broad repertoire of visually guided behaviours that can readily be quantified …
