Swarm Robotics

By Marco Dorigo

The current state of the art in swarm robotics, showing how groups of simple robots can work together to solve complex tasks by drawing inspiration from nature.

Swarm robotics explores how intelligence can emerge when many simple robots interact with one another and with their environment. Instead of relying on a single powerful machine, swarm systems take cues from ants, bees, and other collective organisms to create coordinated behavior that is flexible, scalable, and resilient.

This book offers a clear and accessible introduction to the field, combining foundational ideas with the latest research. It traces the history of swarm robotics, explains the core principles of self-organization and distributed control, and presents real-world platforms and applications. From environmental monitoring and search and rescue to agriculture and construction, contributors show how swarms can address practical challenges while opening up new frontiers in robotics.

Written for readers across disciplines, Swarm Robotics balances technical depth with broad insight. It is an essential resource for anyone interested in robotics, artificial intelligence, or the study of collective behavior.
