Prerequisites for a neurobotic head device Prerrequisitos para un dispositivo de cabeza neurobótica

We present a neurobotic head, a robot device that has been instrumented following explicit principles and data (prerequisites) for the study of neurobiology by synthesis. The methods of construction and tests of this device follow such prerequisites. The main principle is the modular organization in blocks. The blocks are modules as: Skeletal, Muscle-like (M-L) and Motoneuron-like (Mn-L) devices, Nerve-like pulse trains, Mn-L selectors, Sensorlike receptors; and Sensorial and Integrative modules. The hardware comprise of: eight M-L servomotors, two light sensors, two sound sensors, one accelerometer, one microcontroller and one PC. The head has a visuomotor integrative module programmed to produce autonomous complex eyes/neck seeking behavior.
