Summary

Introduction

This chapter discusses how cognitive developmental robotics (CDR) can make a paradigm shift in science and technology. A synthetic approach is revisited as a candidate for the paradigm shift, and CDR is reviewed from this viewpoint. A transdisciplinary approach appears to be a necessary condition and how to represent and design “subjectivity” seems to be an essential issue.

It is no wonder that new scientific findings are dependent on the most advanced technologies. A typical example is brain-imaging technologies such as fMRI, PET, EEG, NIRS, and so on that have been developed to expand the observations of neural activities from static local images to ones that can show dynamic and global behavior, and have therefore been revealing new mysteries of brain functionality. Such advanced technologies are presumed to be mere supporting tools for biological analysis, but is there any possibility that it could be a means for new science invention?
