Miniaturization is progressing rapidly in many fields, and the trend toward the creation of ever smaller units is also prevalent in the world of robot technology. In the future, minuscule robots used ...

Repeated selection at expanding swarm fronts transformed a clonal Enterobacter strain into five elongated, highly persistent ...

Before we get to that thing about robot swarms, CleanTechnica had a chance to speak with the person behind the series, Jane Root, who is the President of Discovery Networks and the founder of the well ...

Seemingly spontaneously coordinated swarm behavior exhibited by large groups of animals is a fascinating and striking collective phenomenon. Experiments conducted on laser-controlled synthetic ...

This study is led by Professor Dong Ren and Dr. Jiajia Wang (College of Life Sciences, Capital Normal University). The obvious aggregations, a large gathering of adult caddisflies, were found in six ...

Swarm behavior is a phenomenon observed in nature where flocks of birds, schools of fish, and swarms of insects exhibit coordinated movement. Each entity interacts with its surroundings and other ...

A study recently published in Science has found that classical models of collective behavior fail to explain the mechanisms driving desert locust swarms—an ecological phenomenon that affects millions ...
