Dutch lab harnesses nature to advance drone swarms

In Delft, researchers at the Delft University of Technology have opened the nation’s first dedicated facility for studying ...
In Ukraine, people are currently observing at breakneck speed how AI can be used in war. Is the use of artificial intelligence in weapon systems new? And how does AI actually select targets? Expert ...
In recent weeks, Ukrainian drone units have intensified attacks on Russian logistics routes across occupied southern Ukraine. Open-source analyst Clément Molin has counted more than 125 strikes along ...
For most of us, a locust swarm sounds like an utter nightmare. For roboticists, it’s inspiration. Nature abounds with creatures that cooperate with a “hive mind.” From bees gathering pollen to schools ...
Abstract: Collective motion (CM) is a behaviour frequently seen in social animals, such as bird flocks and fish schools. The CM in swarm robotics could be achieved via virtual forces between the ...
Researchers at Princeton University have built a swarm of interconnected mini-robots that “bloom” like flowers in response to changing light levels in an office. According to their new paper published ...
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 ...
Aircraft manufacturing is on the cusp of its most profound transformation since the dawn of powered flight. The assembly line, a staple of industrial production for over a century, is about to be ...
Swarm robotics addresses the design, deployment, and analysis of large groups of robots that collaborate to perform tasks in a decentralized manner. Research in this field has predominantly relied on ...
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 ...
