Is there a unifying principle underpinning animal locomotion in its rich diversity? A thermodynamic analysis performed by a Skoltech professor and his French collaborators at Université Paris Diderot, ...

Researchers questioned if coordinated group movements by animals moving through a fluid could reduce the energy cost of locomotion. By combining biomechanics and bioenergetics the researchers found ...

With the help of a form of machine learning called deep reinforcement learning (DRL), the EPFL robot notably learned to transition from trotting to pronking – a leaping, arch-backed gait used by ...

It’s okay if this weirds you out.

Their experiments revealed cross-species locomotion features shared by dopamine-deficient worms, mice, and humans. Despite their evolutionary differences, all of these organisms are unable to move ...

Muybridge and motion photography = Muybridge und die Bewegungsfotografie = Muybridge et la chronophotographie / Hans Christian Adam -- The Attitudes of animals in motion : a series of photographs ...

An exhibition of photographs by pioneering early photographer, Eadweard Muybridge will open at Beetles + Huxley in July. The exhibition will showcase 65 collotypes prints made by the artist in 1887, ...

Eadweard Muybridge (1830–1904) was one of the pioneers of motion photography. Using a complex experimental camera setup and innovative camera technology he succeeded for the first time in the history ...
