Abstract

Swarm robotics concept is inspired from small insects such as ant or bee colonies. It composes a system consisting of many small robots with simple control mechanisms capable of achieving complex collective behaviors on the swarm level such as aggregation, pattern formation, and collective transportation. The most remarkable characteristic of swarm robots are the ability to work cooperatively to achieve the common goal. Thus swarm robotics is a new approach to the coordination of multi-robot system which consist large number of simple robots which takes it inspiration from social insects. It is an interesting alternative to classical approaches to robotics because of some properties of problem solving present in the social insects, which is flexible, robust, decentralized and self-organized. This work gives overview of swarm robotics concept and its application in material handling. Computational swarm intelligence is modelled on the social behavior of animals and its principle application as an optimization technique. Swarm robotics is relatively new and rapidly developing field which draws an inspiration from swarm intelligence
