The Jamaica College team Bluebots has emerged as the winner of the NCB Foundation, FTC Jamaica robotics championship, beating out tough competition from schools across the country and the Dominican ...

And while the Bluebots themselves would likely be incapable of rescuing anyone, the core technology could also be applied to much larger, more capable autonomous underwater robots. It could also be ...

Seven little Bluebots gently swim around a darkened tank in a Harvard University lab, spying on one another with great big eyes made of cameras. They’re on the lookout for the two glowing blue LEDs ...

Harvard scientists have created a swarm of swimming robots that could pave the way for new methods of environmental monitoring and searching coral reefs. The autonomous “Bluebots” synchronize their ...

Researchers at Harvard's Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering have created a set of fish-shaped underwater robots that can autonomously navigate and find each other, cooperating to ...

They are one of nature's most spectacular and most mysterious spectacles — moments where hundreds if not thousands of animals, herrings, starlings, beetles, appear to move together seemingly as one ...

Each fish-inspired robot uses two wide-angle cameras to look for the LEDs on its companions. Image courtesy of Self-organizing Systems Research Group Researchers at Harvard University have created a ...

Researchers have made a smart school of robotic fish that swarm and swim just like the real deal, and they offer promising insights into how developers can improve decentralized, autonomous operations ...

Schools of fish exhibit complex, synchronized behaviors that help them find food, migrate and evade predators. No one fish or team of fish coordinates these movements nor do fish communicate with each ...

Each fish-inspired robot uses two wide-angle cameras to look for the LEDs on its companions. Image courtesy of Self-organizing Systems Research Group Researchers at Harvard University have created a ...

Researchers have developed fish-inspired robots that can synchronize their movements like a real school of fish, without any external control. It is the first time researchers have demonstrated ...
