"Autonomous robots must carry out useful tasks all by themselves relying entirely on their own perceptions of their environment. The cognitive abilities required for autonomous action are largely independent of robot size, which makes mini robots attractive as artefacts for research, education and entertainment. Autonomous mini robots must be small enough for experimentation on a desktop or a small laboratory. They must be easy to carry and safe for interaction with humans. They must not be expensive. Mini robot designers have to work at the leading edge of technology so that their creations can carry out purposeful autonomic action under these constraints. Since 2001 researchers have met every two years for an international symposium to report on the advances achieved in Autonomous Mini Robots for Research and Edutainment (AMiRE). The AMiRE Symposium is a single track conference that offers ample opportunities for discussion and exchange of ideas. This volume contains the contributed papers of the 2011 AMiRE Symposium held from 23 to 25 May 2011 at Bielefeld University, Germany. The contributions in this volume represent the state-of-the-art of autonomous mini robots; they demonstrate what is currently technically feasible and show some of the applications for autonomous mini robots.

"This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Simulation, Modeling, and Programming for Autonomous Robots, SIMPAR 2012, held in Tsukuba, Japan, in November 2012. The 33 revised full papers and presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. Ten papers describe design of complex behaviors of autonomous robots, 9 address software layers, 8 papers refer to related modeling and learning. The papers are organized in topical sections on mobile robots, software modeling and architecture and humanoid and biped robots."

"The 22nd Conference on Autonomous Mobile Systems (AMS 2012) provides a platform for idea exchange, scientific discussion and cooperation for scientists from universities as well as industry. Autonomous mobile systems as well as their practical approach are in the center of interest. The presented selection of articles focuses on approaches from the fields of perception and sensors, mapping and localization, control, navigation, micro- and nano robotics, machine learning, autonomous cars, humanoid robots, system architectures and the application in autonomous mobile systems."

"The book provides answers by developing a general principle, homeokinesis, the dynamical symbiosis between brain, body, and environment. That is shown to drive robots to self- determined, individual development in a playful and obviously embodiment- related way, a dog-like robot starts playing with a barrier, eventually jumping or climbing over it, a snakebot develops coiling and jumping modes, humanoids develop climbing behaviors when fallen into a pit, or engage in wrestling-like scenarios when encountering an opponent. The book also develops guided self-organization, a new method that helps to make the playful machines fit for fulfilling tasks in the real world.The book provides two levels of presentation. Students and scientific researchers interested in the field of robotics, self-organization and dynamical systems theory may be satisfied by the in-depth mathematical analysis of the principle, the bootstrapping scenarios, and the emerging behaviors. But the book additionally comes with a robotics simulator inviting also the non- scientific reader to simply enjoy the fabulous world of playful machines by performing the numerous experiments."

"The theme of this book is to examine the feasibility of creating such robots within the limitations of current mechanical engineering. The topics comprise the following aspects of such a pursuit : the philosophy of design of self-organizing mechanical systems, self-organization in biological systems, the history of self-organizing mechanical systems, a case study of a self-assembling/self-repairing system as an autonomous distributed system, a self-organizing robot that can create its own shape and robotic motion, implementation and instrumentation of self-organizing robots, and the future of self-organizing robots. All topics are illustrated with many up-to-date examples."
