Abstract :
A tracking system based of the IMU8420 data logger has been created. This tracking system can be used to store the various movements of different types of animal´s in-between the GPS signals, leading to a much more accurate representation of what the animal is undergoing at any point in time. This data can then be used to determine the behaviors of the animals, and thus new algorithms can be generated to try and mimic this behavior in robotics. The system could be applied to a swarm of animals to determine what an entire swarm is doing, and thus new swarming algorithms can be created.
