Biorobotics aims not only to elucidate the sensorimotor mechanisms of animals, but also to embody them sparingly aboard bio-inspired robots, which are then true proofs of concept evolving in a real environment. This approach thus makes it possible to confirm or invalidate what we think we have understood about animal functioning. Thus, through an interaction between different scientific fields, Biorobotics simultaneously advances the understanding of the sensorimotor mechanisms of animals, but also provides robots with the agility of animals through a more ecological sensorimotor coupling (in the sense of James J. Gibson) with the environment.
