The actuation methods for each robot will be simple for feasibility. Possible creatures include: fish with soft tails which can actuate to swim, or jellyfish with soft robotic tentacles. The creatures should have some mechanism to interact with each other, either directly with proximity sensors, or (more likely) a magnet to divert them from each other. The overall goal is to create a robotic &#8220;ecosystem&#8221;, possibly with &#8220;predator&#8221; and &#8220;prey&#8221; fish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Art\/Design Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Robot Fish, MIRO is swimming with real fish in the aquarium\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tZTG51eGhhM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.csail.mit.edu\/research\/sofi-soft-robotic-fish\">https:\/\/www.csail.mit.edu\/research\/sofi-soft-robotic-fish<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/spectrum.ieee.org\/blueswarm-robotic-fish#toggle-gdpr\">https:\/\/spectrum.ieee.org\/blueswarm-robotic-fish#toggle-gdpr<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Technical\/Research Papers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Jennifer Frame, Nick Lopez, Oscar Curet, and Erik D.
