| Format | PDF E-Book File Size: Varies Category: Veterinary Behavioral Science and Comparative Medicine Specialty: Animal Behavior, Ethology, and Biorobotics DESCRIPTION ----------- This groundbreaking textbook bridges the innovative field of robotics with classical ethology, introducing veterinary professionals and animal scientists to ethorobotics—an emerging interdisciplinary domain that utilizes robotic systems to study, understand, and interact with animal behavior. The text provides comprehensive coverage of how biomimetic robots and automated systems are revolutionizing our understanding of animal communication, social dynamics, cognitive processes, and behavioral patterns across species. From fish schools to bird flocks, from insect colonies to mammalian social groups, this resource demonstrates how robotic agents serve as powerful research tools for investigating natural behaviors in controlled and field settings. Written for the modern veterinary professional, this volume explores the theoretical foundations of animal behavior while introducing cutting-edge technological applications that enhance behavioral assessment, welfare monitoring, and therapeutic interventions. The book examines how robotic platforms can replicate animal morphology, movement patterns, and sensory signals to elicit natural responses, providing unprecedented insights into species-specific behaviors that inform clinical practice, conservation efforts, and animal management strategies. Readers will gain practical knowledge of how ethorobotic methodologies are being applied in veterinary behavioral medicine, zoo animal management, wildlife conservation, and laboratory animal science. The text balances theoretical concepts with real-world applications, making complex technological innovations accessible to veterinary practitioners seeking to incorporate evidence-based behavioral science into their clinical decision-making and animal care protocols. KEY FEATURES ------------ • Comprehensive introduction to the principles and applications of ethorobotics in animal behavior research and veterinary practice • Detailed exploration of robotic design principles that replicate animal morphology, locomotion, and communication signals • Evidence-based methodologies for using robotic systems to assess animal cognition, social behavior, and welfare indicators • Case studies demonstrating ethorobotic applications across diverse species including companion animals, livestock, wildlife, and laboratory animals • Integration of classical ethological theory with modern technological innovations in behavioral assessment • Practical guidance on interpreting ethorobotic research findings for clinical behavioral medicine and animal management • Discussion of ethical considerations, limitations, and future directions in the field of animal-robot interaction studies TARGET AUDIENCE --------------- • Veterinary behaviorists and practitioners specializing in behavioral medicine seeking innovative assessment tools • Veterinary students and residents interested in animal behavior, ethology, and emerging research methodologies • Zoo veterinarians and wildlife specialists involved in behavioral monitoring and conservation programs • Research scientists in comparative psychology, animal cognition, and behavioral ecology • Animal welfare officers and specialists requiring advanced behavioral assessment techniques INSTANT ACCESS -------------- Download immediately after purchase Compatible with all PDF readers Personal use license included PRICE: HK$340.00 |
