Even the word ‘swarm’ has negative connotations – bees, locusts, wasps – so how do we even start to initiate trust in swarm robotics?
Sabine Hauert, Associate Professor of Swarm Engineering, University of Bristol is our guest on this week’s podcast episode: Should we worry about Swarm Robotics (or simply rebrand as flocking robots?)
Sabine discusses the robots worked on in her lab and the benefits of swarm behaviour – including how it negates a single point of failure.
Alan Chamberlain, Research Fellow, University of Nottingham
Richard Hyde, Professor of Law, Regulation and Governance, University of Nottingham make up this week’s panel. Hosted and produced by Sean Riley.
