We present a novel augmented reality (AR) framework to show relevant information about swarm dynamics to a user in the absence of markers by using blinking frequency to distinguish between groups in ...

Imagine if you could harness the productivity of an insect colony – hundreds, if not thousands of miniature agents working together towards a larger goal – that's the future promised by swarm robotics ...

The prestigious, single-track conference in the field of robotics takes place every two years and has a paper acceptance rate of around 30%. The Best Paper Award is given based on both the live ...

In crowded environments, more robots don’t always mean faster results—in fact, too many can bring everything to a standstill.

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 from ...

Uber-geek [James McLurkin] was in Austin recently demoing his robot swarm. He’s on tour with EDA Tech Forum. [McLurkin] has multiple degrees from the MIT AI lab and worked at iRobot for a couple of ...

I-Swarm, You swarm, we all swarm for --- OMFG, robots! While many robots find success by mimicking humans, there's a whole set of robotics dedicated to imitating ants and bees. We've seen some of ...
