The DEMIURGE project: Automatic design of robot swarms | Video teaser

May 6, 2021


With this teaser of the ERC project DEMIURGE, we celebrate #ERC10kGrantees. Congratulations!

Automatic design is a promising approach to the design of collective behaviors for robot swarms. Starting from the specifications of a mission, an automatic design method generates a swarm with a collective behavior that is suitable for addressing the mission. Automatic methods design robot swarms without requiring human intervention, and we expect them to play a central role in the transitioning of swarm robotics from the lab to real applications.
