Foundational Mechanisms of Visual-Perception Control in Cyborg Insects Using UV Stimulation

This dataset presents experimental data collected from three cyborg cockroaches using non-invasive UV stimulation. The dataset includes 15 trials in total, with 5 trials for each cockroach.The UV stimulation was applied as a means to manipulate the cockroach's compound eyes, effectively directing their trajectories. The dataset provides detailed recordings of the insects' responses to UV stimulation, offering valuable insights into the effectiveness of this sensory manipulation for bio-hybrid systems. This study represents the first successful demonstration of using UV stimulation to control cyborg insect locomotion, and the data contained here can serve as a critical resource for advancing research in the field of biohybrid robotics and insect-based control mechanisms.
