This work investigates how a predator-prey scenario can induce the emergence
of Open-Ended Evolution (OEE). We utilize modular robots of fixed morphologies
whose controllers are subject to evolution. In both species, robots can send
and receive signals and perceive the relative positions of other robots in the
environment. Specifically, we introduce a feature we call a tagging system: it
modifies how individuals can perceive each other and is expected to increase
behavioral complexity. Our results show the emergence of adaptive strategies,
demonstrating the viability of inducing OEE through predator-prey dynamics
using modular robots. Such emergence, nevertheless, seemed to depend on
conditioning reproduction to an explicit behavioral criterion.

通过探究捕食 - 猎物场景如何诱导出现开放式演化（OEE），使用固定形态的模块化机器人，并对其控制器进行进化。引入所谓的标记系统作为一个新特性，预期增加行为复杂性。结果表明，通过使用模块化机器人的捕食 - 猎物动态能够产生出自适应策略，展示了诱导 OEE 的可行性，尽管似乎依赖于将繁殖条件化为明确的行为标准。
