According to the study, the system developed by the CUHK researchers is a 3D terrestrial, self-reconfigurable robotic swarm ...

Each robot costs only a single penny to manufacture. The robots could help advance everything from nanotechnology ...

Bees, ants, and termites build complex structures without blueprints, architects, or construction supervisors. Their colonies produce intricate hives and nests by relying on local cues like warmth, ...

Scientists 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 findings ...

Newly developed mathematical rules allow virtual swarms of tiny robots to build without blueprints. In computer simulations, the robots built honeycomb-like structures without ever following - or even ...

Forget teaching robots to think like humans. A field called swarm robotics is taking inspiration from ants, bees and even slime molds—simple creatures that achieve remarkable feats through collective ...

Swarm behavior is a phenomenon observed in nature where flocks of birds, schools of fish, and swarms of insects exhibit coordinated movement. Each entity interacts with its surroundings and other ...

To what extent might robots be able to act as extensions of our bodies? Scientists are exploring how to integrate AI agents with A physical form and human-like senses into our lives. 25 June 2025 A ...
