Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Vol. 9904 N2 - Cognitive robotics aims at understanding biological processes, though it has also the potential to improve future robotics systems. Here we show how a biologically inspired model of motor control with neural fields can be augmented with additional components such that it is able to solve a basic robotics task, that of obstacle avoidance. While obstacle avoidance is a well researched area, the focus here is on the extensibility of a biologically inspired framework. This work demonstrates how easily the biological inspired system can be used to adapt to new tasks. This flexibility is thought to be a major hallmark of biological agents.
