AIBO as an application platform
Results of our basic research in the field of Interactive Evolutionary Computation (IEC) and Interactive Neural Network Training (INNT) had to be applied to the AIBO quadruped robot. We were focused on improvement of present and design of new skills of AIBO. However our goals are unreachable as we are not allowed to implement an external power connector by our supervisor. A Lithium-Ion battery powered robot is only a toy, not a research tool! So, bye bye AIBO!
