Evolutionary robotics is the attempt to develop robots through a self- organized process based on artificial evolution. This approach stresses the importance of the study of systems that: (1) have a body and are situated in a physical environment, and (2) autonomously develop their own skills in close interaction with the environment. In this article we will briefly illustrate the method and the main idea, we will review the most significant contribution in this area and finally, we will discuss some of the contributions that this research area is making to the foundational debate in cognitive science.

Abstract
Evolutionary robotics is the attempt to develop robots through a self- organized process based on artificial evolution. This approach stresses the importance of the study of systems that: (1) have a body and are situated in a physical environment, and (2) autonomously develop their own skills in close interaction with the environment. In this article we will briefly illustrate the method and the main idea, we will review the most significant contribution in this area and finally, we will discuss some of the contributions that this research area is making to the foundational debate in cognitive science.File in questo prodotto:
