MIT's James McLurkin: Swarm Robotics

[snjsilvan]

Why aren't they all saying, "Exterminate!" ?

[downloadstuffgames]

so they are all connected to each other wirelessly.. SKYNET IN THE MAKING

[calcpage2009]

Wow, I knew James as a student when I was just starting out teaching in Baldwin Senior High. He asked me for help on his robotics project for Westinghouse! That must have been around 1989 or 1990? Its good to see he's so successful.

I got to see these in person because i know who designed them, pretty cool.

[jlumley]

actually this is the coolest thing i have seen in a long long time; there is great potential with this

[pudumula]

[OllersFunnys]
