Octopus is an invertebrate belonging to the class of Cephalopoda. The body of an Octopus lacks any morphological joints and rigid parts. Their arms, skin and the complex nervous system are investigated by a several researchers all over the world. Octopuses are the object of inspiration for my scientists in different areas, including AI. Soft- and hardware are developed based on octopus features. Soft-robotics octopus-inspired arms are the most common type of developments. There are a lot of different variants of this solution, each of them is different from the other. In this paper, we describe the most remarkable octopus features, show solutions inspired by octopus and provide new ideas for further work and investigations in combination of AI and bioinspired soft-robotics areas.

Abstract
Octopus is an invertebrate belonging to the class of Cephalopoda. The body of an Octopus lacks any morphological joints and rigid parts. Their arms, skin and the complex nervous system are investigated by a several researchers all over the world. Octopuses are the object of inspiration for my scientists in different areas, including AI. Soft- and hardware are developed based on octopus features. Soft-robotics octopus-inspired arms are the most common type of developments. There are a lot of different variants of this solution, each of them is different from the other. In this paper, we describe the most remarkable octopus features, show solutions inspired by octopus and provide new ideas for further work and investigations in combination of AI and bioinspired soft-robotics areas.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
