Overview: This updated book provides an introduction to Swarm Robotics, which is the application of methods from swarm intelligence to robotics. The author presents methods that allow readers to understand how to design large-scale robot systems by going through many example scenarios on topics such as aggregation, coordinated motion (flocking), task allocation, self-assembly, collective construction, and environmental monitoring. The author explains the methodology behind building multiple, simple robots and how the complexity emerges from the multiple interactions between these robots such that they are able to solve difficult tasks. The book can be used as a short textbook for specialized courses or as an introduction to Swarm Robotics for graduate students, researchers, and professionals who want a concise introduction to the field. New topics to this edition include human-swarm interaction, energy efficiency in field swarm robotics, and water-surface-vehicle swarms, among other topics. Swarm robotics is an emerging field of robotics that focuses on the coordination of multiple robots to perform tasks collectively, drawing inspiration from the behavior of social insects such as ants, bees, and termites. This interdisciplinary research field integrates concepts from biology, Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, and engineering to create systems capable of solving challenging problems and performing complex tasks through decentralized decision-making and collaboration. The appeal of swarm robotics lies in its potential to harness the power of many simple robots to achieve sophisticated collective behaviors, thereby addressing challenges that are difficult or impossible for single robots to tackle.
