Swarm Robotics

Swarms of robots will revolutionize many industrial applications, from targeted material delivery to precision farming. However, several of the heterogeneous characteristics that make them ideal for certain future applications (e.g, robot autonomy, decentralized control, collective emergent behavior) hinder the evolution of the technology from academic institutions to real-world problems. In the research line we aim to discover methods and tools to integrate robotic swarms into new scenarios.
