Go Big or Go Home: Simulating Mobbing Behavior with Braitenbergian Robots

ArXi:2604.00350v1 Announce Type: cross We used the Webots robotics simulation platform to simulate a dyadic avoiding and mobbing predator behavior in a group of Braitenbergian robots. Mobbing is an antipredator adaptation used by some animals in which the individuals cooperatively attack or harass a predator to protect themselves. One way of coordinating a mobbing attack is using mobbing calls to summon other individuals of the mobbing species.
