Abstract
Visual selection plays a fundamental role in various aspects of animal behavior, such as colony formation, maintenance, defense, and courtship. This study investigated the effect of bionic robot fish color on carp behavior based on physiological characteristics that were observed during behavioral experiments. Through computer image processing and analysis of light attenuation, we observed changes in the number and positioning of carp with bionic robotic fish of different colors (white, red, blue, green, and yellow). The results indicated that (1) the attenuation coefficient of visible light in freshwater was red > yellow > green > blue; (2) the order of the average change in the number of carp responding to different colors of robotic fish was white > red > green > yellow > blue, and carp were more sensitive and responsive to white and red robotic fish; and (3) the order of the distances between different colors of robotic fish and carp was white < yellow < blue < green < red, and white and yellow robotic fish were more attractive to carp. Therefore, the use of white or yellow robotic fish for relevant operations can reduce disturbance to fish schools.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
