We present SunBot, a robotic system for the study and implementation of fish-inspired tearing manipulations. Various fish species–such as the sunburst butterflyfish-feed on prey fixed to substrates, a maneuver previously not demonstrated by robotic fish which typically specialize for open water swimming and surveillance. Biological studies indicate that a dynamic “head flick” behavior may play a r...
