Their behaviours are self-organised, emerging from the interactions of every agent with their local environment. For the past 20 years, swarm robotics has taken inspiration from nature to make large numbers of robots work together to achieve common goals. With progress in swarm hardware and AI, the field is now ready to translate these swarms from laboratory to application. Join swarm engineering expert Sabine Hauert as she explores the mechanisms to make 'swarms for people', in applications ranging from nanomedicine to environmental monitoring and logistics. The next step is to make swarms easy to design, deploy, monitor, control, and validate towards making swarms that are, and should, be trusted. --- Sabine Hauert is Professor of Swarm Engineering at University of Bristol. She leads a team of 20 researchers working on making swarms for people, and across scales, from nanorobots for cancer treatment, to larger robots for environmental monitoring, or logistics (https://hauertlab.com/).
