postheadericon Tiny $14 Kilobots work by swarming together

Kilobots are tiny autonomous swarming robots, that cost about $14 a piece to build (Ph...

Autonomous robotic devices are quite capable of some impressive performances, but as is the case with humans, can sometimes reach large groups, what can an individual or a small group does not exist. Research such as MAST program by BAE Systems to recognize this potential and examine ways in which all Swarms could work the little robot. The problem is given, how much time and money goes into the creation of a typical autonomous robot, it is difficult to experiment with a swarm of them to see - Researchers often have to use computer simulations, or their tests with a small group of robots, then zoom in on the results. That's where Harvard University Kilobot comes into play project. It swarms tiny robot, just five minutes to build the company, and has a value of about U.S. $ 14 per ...
