Properties of the human embodiment sensorimotor apparatus and neurological structure participate directly in the growth and development of cognitive processes against enormous worst case complexity. It is our position that relationships between morphology and perception over time lead to incerasingly comprehensive models that describe the agent's relationship to the world.We are applying insight derived from neuroscience, neurology, and developmental psychology to the design of advanced robot architectures. To investigate developmental processes, we have begun to approximate the human sensorimotor configuration and to engage sensory and motor subsystems in developmental sequences. Many such sequences have been documented in studies of infant …
