Oxford’s Dr. Safeer’s team links physics with robotics, using wave-based computing hardware for robot control.

Researchers from Oxford’s Department of Physics are demonstrating a departure from traditional computer chips by using water waves in a metal container to process information and control a robotic vehicle in real-time. Led by Dr. Safeer Chenattukuzhiyil, the team drew inspiration from the brain’s collective dynamics and a framework called reservoir computing, which requires training only at the output. “One of the…
