Swarmanoid, Robot Collaboration At Its Best

Swarm robotics -using several simple collaborating robots to accomplish very complex tasks, instead of using a single very complex robot- is becoming increasingly popular. The Swarmanoid project is a perfect example of what can be achieved by using a swarm of small robots.

As illustrated in the video above, each type of robot concentrates on a single task (e.g. navigating, grasping, or seeing) and combined they can produce emerging behaviours that are more than just the sum of their individual capabilities.
