A LEGO brick is not smart. It doesn't compute. It doesn't plug in. It just fits. A team of Georgia Tech researchers has ...

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 ...

A recent study conducted in collaboration with Oregon State University has demonstrated the feasibility of supervising a "swarm" of over 100 autonomous aerial and ground robots with the oversight of ...

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 ...

China’s military has put its latest generation of quadruped combat robots through a coordinated urban warfare drill, pairing ...

Souma Chowdhury’s research centers on the idea of adaptation. He combines nature-inspired computing, engineering design and artificial intelligence to create complex systems that autonomously adapt to ...

We are building engagement across New York State through semester-long industry projects with an emphasis on real-world problems in three fundamental robotics areas—swarm robotics, human robot ...

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 ...

Scientists in South Korea have developed swarms of tiny magnetic robots that work together like ants to achieve Herculean feats, including traversing and picking up objects many times their size. The ...

From echoing caves to arching rocks, nature can prove quite the clever architect... but her displays don’t have to be big to be impressive. There are more than 300,000 known species of angiosperms, or ...
