Swarm robotics harnesses the collective behaviours observed in nature to coordinate large numbers of simple, autonomous agents, enabling them to accomplish complex tasks that would be arduous for a ...

(Nanowerk News) Swarm robotics is a new discipline, inspired by the cooperative behaviour of living organisms. It involves fabricating robots and getting them to swarm together to accomplish complex ...

The origins of swarm robotics lie in explorations of principles of self-organization and collective decision-making. The early 2000s marked the transition of swarm robotics from theory to practice as ...

Even though snails are slow and slimy-bottomed, they've inspired a new type of robot that could be quite useful. Groups of these bots can operate independently or join together in order to perform ...

Scientists have developed an advanced swarm navigation algorithm for cyborg insects that prevents them from becoming stuck while navigating challenging terrain. The new algorithm represents a ...

In a new study, we demonstrate the potential of blockchain technology, known from cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, to secure the coordination of robot swarms. In experiments conducted ...

Continually pushing the boundaries of industrial automation, robotics delivers unparalleled efficiencies and solutions that were once deemed the stuff of science fiction. Industries across sectors are ...
