Cognitive Robotics: Where Brain Science Meets Automation
Swapnil Bilgoji -, Shubha B.Baravani - · International Journal on Science and Technology · 2025
Cognitive robotics is an interdisciplinary field that fuses artificial intelligence, neuroscience, robotics, and cognitive science to create intelligent robots capable of adaptive, goal-driven behavior. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of cognitive robotics systems, emphasizing biologically inspired models, sensory integration, and learning mechanisms. By integrating brain-like processes, cognitive robots can learn from interaction, adapt to complex environments, and perform tasks traditionally reserved for humans. We present experimental results from a robotic testbed implementing cognitive architectures, evaluate performance improvements in dynamic tasks, and outline future implications for human-robot collaboration.
