Let the observers assign names to the creatures, rather than telling them the names we have given them. Turn in a summary of their reactions at our next lab meeting. In the book, Braitenberg describes a set of increasingly complex vehicles built from simple mechanical and electronic components. Fear, Love, Values, Logic, etc. Braitenberg uses these thought experiments to explore psychological ideas and the nature of intelligence.
Intricate behaviors seem to emerge from interactions of simple component parts.
Hogg et al used specialized electronic LEGO bricks to build these creatures. For more details, see their paper Braitenberg Creatures.
