Abstract
In this talk I will present experimental work in which a swarm of robots cooperate to solve problems that are too difficult for a single robot. In the talk, I will shortly describe the innovative robotic hardware that we built, called a swarm-bot, and the methodology we followed to develop algorithms for its control. Then I will focus on the capabilities of the swarm-bot robotic system by showing video recordings of some of the many experiments we performed to study coordinated movement, path formation, self-assembly, collective transport, shape formation, and other collective behaviors.
