N2 - By mimicking fish lateral lines and fish sensing behaviors, we constructed an artificial lateral line and employed it for biomimetic flow sensing. Thirteen hot-film anemometers were mounted to the surface of a NACA0015 airfoil to constitute the artificial lateral line. The resulting fish-like platform was maneuvered by a 3-degree-of-freedom robotic arm for twodimensional mobility in aquatic environments. Assisted with specially developed algorithms, two biologically relevant flowsensing scenarios have been realized. They were tracking a nearby dipole source in still water by detecting the dipole flow field and tracking a distant stationary source in running water by detecting its hydrodynamic wake.
