The Smartest Robots May Be the ‘Dumbest’ Ones
Primary tabs
Georgia Tech researchers have created swarms of tiny robotic particles that move and self-organize using only mechanical design — no electronics, software, or sensors. By encoding behavior in each particle’s shape, the team can control how the swarm spreads and reconfigures, with potential applications in medicine and space.
