Swarmanoid robots work together to retrieve objects

Swarmanoid robots work together to retrieve objects

If you want to see an impressive display of completely automated robots working together to solve a problem, you're in luck. Professor Marco Dorigo and his team of researchers have recently released a video showing off The Swarmanoid project - a group of robots that can work together to complete its tasks. Made up of three robots - the foot-bot, the hand-bot, and the eye-bot; each one has a specialized role that is essential in the whole process. The foot-bot helps to transport other robots like the hand-bot, and works as guiding posts, while the hand-bot is used to climb objects and carry things.
