LumiBots: making emergence graspable in a swarm of robots
Emergence is a concept that is not easy to grasp, since it contradicts our idea of central control and planning. In this work, we use a swarm of robots as a tangible tool to visua...

A Neural-Endocrine Architecture for Foraging in Swarm Robotic Systems
This paper presents the novel use of the Neural-endocrine architecture for swarm robotic systems. We make use of a number of behaviours to give rise to emergent swarm behaviour to ...
