What’s the only thing that could make a regular drone sound boring? A swarm of thought-controlled drones, of course. As unbelievable as it sounds, this is exactly what researchers at Arizona State ...

Individual robots can work collectively as swarms to create major advances in everything from construction to surveillance, but microrobots’ small scale is ideal for drug delivery, disease diagnosis, ...

Controlling a single drone takes up a considerable amount of concentration and normally involves wearing silly goggles. It only gets harder if you want to control a swarm. Researchers at Skolkovo ...

Past research has found ways to steer a drone just through the power of the mind. Now, researchers at Arizona State University (ASU) have built on that with a system that allows a pilot to take ...

Swarms of drones flying in terrifyingly perfect formation could be one step closer, thanks to a control algorithm being developed at MIT. The complexities involved in controlling teams of moving ...

Scientists have developed an advanced swarm navigation algorithm for cyborg insects that prevents them from becoming stuck while navigating challenging terrain. The new algorithm represents a ...

Swarm robotics systems have the potential to tackle many interesting problems. Their control software is mostly created by ad-hoc development. This makes it hard to deploy swarm robotics systems in ...

Auterion completes the world’s first live combat drone swarm using FPV and fixed-wing systems from multiple manufacturers.

John is a Toronto-based author who does photography in his spare time. When not being insulted over Xbox Live, he spends his time playing soccer and perpetually napping. His favorite games include ...
