The Synthetic Forager project (2008-2011) has been documented in a 50 minute video presentation, produced by the seven involved partners. For this Youtube channel, the video is cut to 5 parts:

part 1:
# introduction (UPF, Paul Verschure)
#1 foraging (UPF, Paul Verschure)
#2 remembering Space (TAU, Matti Mintz)
#3 a self regulation model (UPF, Martí Sanchez-Fíbla)
#4 by a rodent's heart (IDIBAPS, Thomas Gener)

part 2:
#5 reactive subsystems (UPF, Martí Sanchez-Fíbla)
#6 signals from hippocampus (UvA, Jeroen Bos)
#7 a rewarding space (TAU, Matti Mintz)

part 3:
#8 the hippocampal loop (SPECS, Paul Verschure)
#9 a place cell model (SPECS, Cesar Rennó-Costa & André Luvizotto)

part 4:
#10 prediction (Osnabrueck, Peler König)
#11 places, actions, and cues (UvA, Cyriel Pennartz)
#12 cues in action (SPECS, Cesar Rennó-Costa & André Luvizotto)
#13 a working model (SPECS, Encarni Marcos)

part 5:
#14 an architecture for integration (SPECS, Armin Duff)
#15 rats, and robots (IDIBAPS, Diego López; g.Tec; UvA, Jeroen Bos & Cyriel Pennartz)
#16 the end of a project (SPECS, Paul Verschure)
