The robots find their own way around while their algorithm is constantly tweaked and improved. Clever Girl. A robotics company called Geek+ says it's developed a swarm of autonomous worker robots ...

Instead of each robot broadcasting to every other robot a complete map of safe space around it, the decentralized algorithm has robots only share maps with their immediate neighbors and also has ...

These robots are part of a Graduate project at Georgia Tech. [Ted Macdonald] has been working along with others to implement an organizational algorithm that guides the swarm.

Until recently, the field of robotics was focused on developing intelligent robots that worked alone. But that is quickly changing as more algorithms of swarm intelligence solve some of our most ...

The next experiment from Rice University's Multi-Robot Systems Laboratory (MRSL) could happen on your desktop. Researchers are refining their control algorithms for robotic swarms based upon data ...

“A smart contract platform enabled a robot swarm to detect inconsistencies in robots’ behaviors—some of the robots were Byzantine [or adversarial]—demonstrating how blockchain technology could add a ...

Robots need to avoid collisions. But if they're designed to be too careful, performance may suffer. A team has created new algorithms that aim to strike a balance between the two extremes ...

Alone, the simple little robot can’t do much, shuffling around on three vibrating tooth-pick legs. But working with 1,000 or more like-minded fellow bots, it becomes part of a swarm that can ...

This robotic “acoustic swarm” can not only differentiate voices and their precise locations in a room, ... The best algorithms a decade or two ago were variants of independent component ...

This cross-journal Collection between Nature Communications, Communications Engineering, Communications Physics, and Scientific Reports brings together the advances in swarm intelligence.
