Overview
Kilobot is a small mobile robot that can operate in groups of dozens to more than 1,000 units. The robots mimic how ants and other insects coordinate their swarm behaviors—but they won't bite you. Kilobots were created by researchers at Harvard's Self-Organizing Systems Research Group, led by engineering professor Radhika Nagpal. The goal is to use swarms of Kilobots as a test bed for studying collective behavior in natural and artificial systems.
