Abstract: The current trajectory regulation of cyborg insects faces challenges, including low integration of the stimulation package, single output command, and inadequate signal-trajectory coordination, adversely impacting the efficiency of modulating cyborg insects’ trajectory. To address these challenges, the mechanism of insect locomotion control under sensory electrical stimulation is first explored, which leads to the development of a highly integrated stimulation package. This stimulation module utilizes infrared communication and employs a double-sided screen-printing technique. Remarkably, the stimulation package weighs only 74 mg and features a flexible structure with adjustable parameter output functionality. Furthermore, to enhance the alignment between stimulus signals and insect trajectories, the correlation between sensory stimulus signals and insect behavioral responses as well as spatial movement decisions is further explored. Through this exploration, a mapping relationship between stimulus signals and locomotion parameters is established, enabling precise control over insect movements along specific trajectories. The sensory stimulation-based trajectory control strategy, coupled with the micro stimulation package, lays a theoretical foundation and provides technical support for enhancing the control accuracy of cyborg insects.
