Did you know that Robots can build themselves to take on special tasks?
In a recent study on autonomous robots, a robot created itself out of several robotic modules. Researchers call it a “swarm-bot,” and it changes depending on the task required.
Swarm-bots affirm the amazing versatility that new robots bring to do work beyond human abilities. Is this a good advancement for today’s industry? 
Check out videos of these swarm-bot magicians at NewScienceTech. Researchers describe them like a swarm of bees … as swarm-bots arrange themselves into finite size to complete complex tasks. How does it work?
Swarm-bots combine the best from multi-robot and modular robot systems, so that the more s-bots available, the higher the connection performance. Not surprisingly, the bigger the swarm-bot structure becomes, the more surface it provides for potential connections—increasing the swarm-bot’s growth rate.
Could your workplace use swarm-bots to cross ditches, transport small heavy objects, or navigate rough terrain—none of which your single s-bot could have completed alone?
Is your workplace ready for swarm-bots?
