A robot swarm is essentially a decentralized multi robotics system that can collectively accomplish missions that a single robot could not achieve by itself. It has some unique characteristics that differentiate it from centralized multi robot systems. Swarm robotics is inspired by the swarming nature of insects and birds. It employs a large number of simple robots which can perform complex tasks in a more efficient way than a single robot. It consists of multi robotics in which large numbers of robots are coordinated in a distributed and decentralized way. The goal is to control a large number of simple robots to solve complex tasks. This paper presents an overview of swarm robotics and its applications, benefits, and challenges. Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Uwakwe C. Chukwu | Abayomi Ajayi-Majebi | Sarhan M.

Distributed robotics has been the focus of attention in recent years. The idea of using a group of robots instead of a single one to execute a task came from the necessity of accomplishing a task that is too complex for a single robot. The use of multiple processing units lead to a distributed system within a single robot. Modern robotics systems are increasingly distributed, heterogeneous, and collaborative and can involve challenging computational tasks. A distributed approach can offer desirable advantages such as improved performance. This paper presents an introduction to distributed robots. Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Uwakwe C.

Swarm robotics : Design and implementationIJECEIAES
This project presents a swarming and herding behaviour using simple robots. The main goal is to demonstrate the applicability of artificial intelligence (AI) in simple robotics that can then be scaled to industrial and consumer markets to further the ability of automation. AI can be achieved in many different ways; this paper explores the possible platforms on which to build a simple AI robots from consumer grade microcontrollers. Emphasis on simplicity is the main focus of this paper. Cheap and 8 bit microcontrollers were used as the brain of each robot in a decentralized swarm environment were each robot is autonomous but still a part of the whole. These simple robots don’t communicate directly with each other. They will utilize simple IR sensors to sense each other and simple limit switches to sense other obstacles in their environment. Their main objective is to assemble at certain location after initial start from random locations, and after converging they would move as a single unit without collisions. Using readily available microcontrollers and simple circuit design, semi-consistent swarming behaviour was achieved. These robots don’t follow a set path but will react dynamically to different scenarios, guided by their simple AI algorithm.
AN APPROACH OF IR-BASED SHORT-RANGE CORRESPONDENCE SYSTEMS FOR SWARM ROBOT BA...ijaia
This paper exhibits a short-run correspondence method appropriate for swarm versatile robots application.
Infrared is utilized for transmitting and accepting information and obstruction location. The infrared
correspondence code based swarm signaling is utilized for an independent versatile robot communication
system in this research. A code based signaling system is developed for transmitting information between
different entities of robot. The reflected infrared sign is additionally utilized for separation estimation for
obstruction evasion. Investigation of robot demonstrates the possibility of utilizing infrared signs to get a
solid nearby correspondence between swarm portable robots. This paper exhibits a basic decentralized
control for swarm of self-collecting robots. Every robot in the code based swarm signaling is completely
self-governing and controlled utilizing a conduct based methodology with just infrared-based nearby
detecting and correspondences. The viability of the methodology has been checked with simulation, for a
set of swarm robots.

Autonomous mobile robots have been used to carry out different tasks without continuous human guidance. To achieve the tasks, they must be able to navigate and avoid different kinds of obstacles that faced them. Navigation means that the robot can move through the environment to reach a destination. Obstacles avoidance considers a challenge which robot must overcome. In this work, the authors propose an efficient technique for obstacles avoidance through navigation of swarm mobile robot in an unstructured environment. All robots cooperate with each other to avoid obstacles. The robots detect the obstacles position around them and store their positions in shared memory. By accessing the shared memory, the other robots of the swarm can avoid the detected obstacles when they face them. To implement this idea, the Authors used a MATLAB® and V-REP® (Virtual Robot Experimentation Platform).

Swarm robotics : Design and implementationIJECEIAES
This project presents a swarming and herding behaviour using simple robots. The main goal is to demonstrate the applicability of artificial intelligence (AI) in simple robotics that can then be scaled to industrial and consumer markets to further the ability of automation. AI can be achieved in many different ways; this paper explores the possible platforms on which to build a simple AI robots from consumer grade microcontrollers. Emphasis on simplicity is the main focus of this paper. Cheap and 8 bit microcontrollers were used as the brain of each robot in a decentralized swarm environment were each robot is autonomous but still a part of the whole. These simple robots don’t communicate directly with each other. They will utilize simple IR sensors to sense each other and simple limit switches to sense other obstacles in their environment. Their main objective is to assemble at certain location after initial start from random locations, and after converging they would move as a single unit without collisions. Using readily available microcontrollers and simple circuit design, semi-consistent swarming behaviour was achieved. These robots don’t follow a set path but will react dynamically to different scenarios, guided by their simple AI algorithm.
AN APPROACH OF IR-BASED SHORT-RANGE CORRESPONDENCE SYSTEMS FOR SWARM ROBOT BA...ijaia
This paper exhibits a short-run correspondence method appropriate for swarm versatile robots application.
Infrared is utilized for transmitting and accepting information and obstruction location. The infrared
correspondence code based swarm signaling is utilized for an independent versatile robot communication
system in this research. A code based signaling system is developed for transmitting information between
different entities of robot. The reflected infrared sign is additionally utilized for separation estimation for
obstruction evasion. Investigation of robot demonstrates the possibility of utilizing infrared signs to get a
solid nearby correspondence between swarm portable robots. This paper exhibits a basic decentralized
control for swarm of self-collecting robots. Every robot in the code based swarm signaling is completely
self-governing and controlled utilizing a conduct based methodology with just infrared-based nearby
detecting and correspondences. The viability of the methodology has been checked with simulation, for a
set of swarm robots.

Autonomous mobile robots have been used to carry out different tasks without continuous human guidance. To achieve the tasks, they must be able to navigate and avoid different kinds of obstacles that faced them. Navigation means that the robot can move through the environment to reach a destination. Obstacles avoidance considers a challenge which robot must overcome. In this work, the authors propose an efficient technique for obstacles avoidance through navigation of swarm mobile robot in an unstructured environment. All robots cooperate with each other to avoid obstacles. The robots detect the obstacles position around them and store their positions in shared memory. By accessing the shared memory, the other robots of the swarm can avoid the detected obstacles when they face them. To implement this idea, the Authors used a MATLAB® and V-REP® (Virtual Robot Experimentation Platform).

The Impact of Digital Media on the Decentralization of Power and the Erosion ...ijtsrd
The impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has gained considerable attention in recent years. The adoption of digital technologies and the internet has resulted in declining influence and power for traditional gatekeepers such as publishing houses and news organizations. Simultaneously, digital media has facilitated the emergence of new voices and players in the media industry. Digital medias impact on power decentralization and gatekeeper erosion is visible in several ways. One significant aspect is the democratization of information, which enables anyone with an internet connection to publish and share content globally, leading to citizen journalism and bypassing traditional gatekeepers. Another aspect is the disruption of conventional media industry business models, as traditional organizations struggle to adjust to the decrease in advertising revenue and the rise of digital platforms. Alternative business models, such as subscription models and crowdfunding, have become more prevalent, leading to the emergence of new players. Overall, the impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has brought about significant changes in the media landscape and the way information is shared. Further research is required to fully comprehend the implications of these changes and their impact on society.

Comparative Analysis of Total Corporate Disclosure of Selected IT Companies o...ijtsrd
Disclosure is a process through which a business enterprise communicates with external parties. A corporate disclosure is communication of financial and non financial information of the activities of a business enterprise to the interested entities. Corporate disclosure is done through publishing annual reports. So corporate disclosure through annual reports plays a vital role in the life of all the companies and provides valuable information to investors. The basic objectives of corporate disclosure is to give a true and fair view of companies to the parties related either directly or indirectly like owner, government, creditors, shareholders etc. in the companies act, provisions have been made about mandatory and voluntary disclosure. The IT sector in India is rapidly growing, the trend to invest in the IT sector is rising and employment opportunities in IT sectors are also increasing. Therefore the IT sector is expected to have fair, full and adequate disclosure of all information. Unfair and incomplete disclosure may adversely affect the entire economy. A research study on disclosure practices of IT companies could play an important role in this regard. Hence, the present research study has been done to study and review comparative analysis of total corporate disclosure of selected IT companies of India and to put forward overall findings and suggestions with a view to increase disclosure score of these companies.

The Role of Mentoring and Its Influence on the Effectiveness of the Teaching ...ijtsrd
This paper reports on a study which was conducted to investigate the role of mentoring and its influence on the effectiveness of the teaching of Physics in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. The study adopted the convergent parallel mixed methods design, focusing on respondents in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected, analysed separately, and the results were compared to see if the findings confirm or disconfirm each other. The quantitative analysis found that majority of the respondents 72 of Physics teachers affirmed that they had more experienced colleagues as mentors to help build their confidence, improve their teaching, and help them improve their effectiveness and efficiency in guiding learners’ achievements. Only 28 of the respondents disagreed with these statements. With majority respondents 72 agreeing with the statements, it implies that in most secondary schools, experienced Physics teachers act as mentors to build teachers’ confidence in teaching and improving students’ learning. The interview qualitative data analysis summarized how secondary school Principals use meetings with mentors and mentees to promote mentorship in the school milieu. This has helped strengthen teachers’ classroom practices in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. With the results confirming each other, the study recommends that mentoring should focus on helping teachers employ social interactions and instructional practices feedback and clarity in teaching that have direct measurable impact on students’ learning achievements.

This study primarily focuses on the design of a high side buck converter using an Arduino microcontroller. The converter is specifically intended for use in DC DC applications, particularly in standalone solar PV systems where the PV output voltage exceeds the load or battery voltage. To evaluate the performance of the converter, simulation experiments are conducted using Proteus Software. These simulations provide insights into the input and output voltages, currents, powers, and efficiency under different state of charge SoC conditions of a 12V,70Ah rechargeable lead acid battery. Additionally, the hardware design of the converter is implemented, and practical data is collected through operation, monitoring, and recording. By comparing the simulation results with the practical results, the efficiency and performance of the designed converter are assessed. The findings indicate that while the buck converter is suitable for practical use in standalone PV systems, its efficiency is compromised due to a lower output current.

Sustainable Energy by Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O. Sadikuijtsrd
Energy becomes sustainable if it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Some of the definitions of sustainable energy include the considerations of environmental aspects such as greenhouse gas emissions, social, and economic aspects such as energy poverty. Generally far more sustainable than fossil fuel are renewable energy sources such as wind, hydroelectric power, solar, and geothermal energy sources. Worthy of note is that some renewable energy projects, like the clearing of forests to produce biofuels, can cause severe environmental damage. The sustainability of nuclear power which is a low carbon source is highly debated because of concerns about radioactive waste, nuclear proliferation, and accidents. The switching from coal to natural gas has environmental benefits, including a lower climate impact, but could lead to delay in switching to more sustainable options. “Carbon capture and storage” can be built into power plants to remove the carbon dioxide CO2 emissions, but this technology is expensive and has rarely been implemented. Leading non renewable energy sources around the world is fossil fuels, coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Nuclear energy is usually considered another non renewable energy source, although nuclear energy itself is a renewable energy source, but the material used in nuclear power plants is not. The paper addresses the issue of sustainable energy, its attendant benefits to the future generation, and humanity in general. Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O.

Concepts for Sudan Survey Act Implementations Executive Regulations and Stand...ijtsrd
This paper aims to outline the executive regulations, survey standards, and specifications required for the implementation of the Sudan Survey Act, and for regulating and organizing all surveying work activities in Sudan. The act has been discussed for more than 5 years. The Land Survey Act was initiated by the Sudan Survey Authority and all official legislations were headed by the Sudan Ministry of Justice till it was issued in 2022. The paper presents conceptual guidelines to be used for the Survey Act implementation and to regulate the survey work practice, standardizing the field surveys, processing, quality control, procedures, and the processes related to survey work carried out by the stakeholders and relevant authorities in Sudan. The conceptual guidelines are meant to improve the quality and harmonization of geospatial data and to aid decision making processes as well as geospatial information systems. The established comprehensive executive regulations will govern and regulate the implementation of the Sudan Survey Geomatics Act in all surveying and mapping practices undertaken by the Sudan Survey Authority SSA and state local survey departments for public or private sector organizations. The targeted standards and specifications include the reference frame, projection, coordinate systems, and the guidelines and specifications that must be followed in the field of survey work, processes, and mapping products. In the last few decades, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of geomatics activities and measurements on the Earths surface in space and time, together with observing and mapping the changes. In such cases, data must be captured promptly, standardized, and obtained with more accuracy and specified in much detail. The paper will also highlight the current situation in Sudan, the degree to which survey standards are used, the problems encountered, and the errors that arise from not using the standards and survey specifications.

Towards the Implementation of the Sudan Interpolated Geoid Model Khartoum Sta...ijtsrd
The discussions between ellipsoid and geoid have invoked many researchers during the recent decades, especially during the GNSS technology era, which had witnessed a great deal of development but still geoid undulation requires more investigations. To figure out a solution for Sudans local geoid, this research has tried to intake the possibility of determining the geoid model by following two approaches, gravimetric and geometrical geoid model determination, by making use of GNSS leveling benchmarks at Khartoum state. The Benchmarks are well distributed in the study area, in which, the horizontal coordinates and the height above the ellipsoid have been observed by GNSS while orthometric heights were carried out using precise leveling. The Global Geopotential Model GGM represented in EGM2008 has been exploited to figure out the geoid undulation at the benchmarks in the study area. This is followed by a fitting process, that has been done to suit the geoid undulation data which has been computed using GNSS leveling data and geoid undulation inspired by the EGM2008. Two geoid surfaces were created after the fitting process to ensure that they are identical and both of them could be counted for getting the same geoid undulation with an acceptable accuracy. In this respect, statistical operation played an important role in ensuring the consistency and integrity of the model by applying cross validation techniques splitting the data into training and testing datasets for building the geoid model and testing its eligibility. The geometrical solution for geoid undulation computation has been utilized by applying straightforward equations that facilitate the calculation of the geoid undulation directly through applying statistical techniques for the GNSS leveling data of the study area to get the common equation parameters values that could be utilized to calculate geoid undulation of any position in the study area within the claimed accuracy. Both systems were checked and proved eligible to be used within the study area with acceptable accuracy which may contribute to solving the geoid undulation problem in the Khartoum area, and be further generalized to determine the geoid model over the entire country, and this could be considered in the future, for regional and continental geoid model.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. Robots must protect themselves without violating
the other rules.
Robotics has advanced and taken many forms
including fixed robots, collaborative robots, mobile
robots, industrial robots, medical robots, police
robots, military robots, officer robots, service robots,
space robots, social robots, personal robots, and
rehabilitation robots [4,5]. Robots are becoming
increasingly prevalent in almost every industry, from
healthcare to manufacturing.
Although there are many types of robots designed for
different environments and for different
purposes/applications, they all share four basic
similarities [6]: (1) All robots have some form of
mechanical construction designed to achieve a
particular task; (2) They have electrical components
which power and control the machinery; (3) All
robots must be able to sense its surroundings; a robot
may have light sensors (eyes), touch and pressure
sensors (hands), chemical sensors (nose), hearing and
sonar sensors (ears), etc. (4) All robots contain some
level of computer programming code. An
autonomous robot must have a basic body structure
(the chassis), sensors, a central control system
(microprocessor), actuators (motors), a power supply
and an overall program for its behavior. Programs are
the core essence of a robot since they provide
intelligence. There are three different types of robotic
programs: remote control, artificial intelligence, and
hybrid. Some robots are programmed to faithfully
carry out specific actions over and over again
(repetitive actions) without variation and with a high
degree of accuracy.
The advantages of robotics include heavy-duty jobs
with precision and repeatability. Despite these
advantages, there are certain skills to which humans
will be better suited than machines for some time to
come. Humans have the advantages of creativity,
decision-making, flexibility, and adaptability.
BACKGROUND ON SWARM ROBOTICS
Swarm robotics is the study of how to design multi-
robots that operate without any form of centralized
control. A swarm consists of a large number of simple
entities that interact with each other and with the
environment with no central control. A large number
of simple robots can perform complex tasks in a more
efficient way than a single robot. The goal is to keep
the cost of individual robots low to allow scalability,
making each member of the swarm less demanding of
resources. Another goal is for swarm robots to
perform tasks to cover a wide region.
Swarm robotics is a field of multi-robotics in which
large number of robots are coordinated in a
distributed and decentralized way. Inspired by social
insects, swarm robotics is an approach for
coordinating multiple robots for a desired collective
behavior. This approach emerged on the field of
artificial swarm intelligence. Swarm intelligence is
the emergent collective intelligence of groups of
simple agents. It is the collective behavior of
decentralized, self-organized systems, natural or
artificial. It belongs to the emerging field of bio-
inspired soft computing and optimization. It is
inspired from the biological entities such as birds,
fish, ants, wasps, termites, and bees [7,8]. The design
of robot swarms is guided by swarm intelligence
principles, which are illustrated in Figure 1 [9].
Figure 2 depicts the general model of swarm robotics
[10].
A robot swarm is a decentralized system
characterized by locality of sensing and
communication, self-organization, and redundancy.
Although a swarm robotics usually consists of
homogenous agents, in recent years, heterogeneous
swarm (i.e., a swarm composed of different types of
robots) has found its way to swarm robotics. Robot
swarms coordinate the collaborative behaviors of a
large number of relatively simple robots in a
decentralized manner. A collective decision is the
result of a process distributed among a collective of
agents that leads the collective to make a choice that,
once made, can no longer be traced back to any of its
individual agents. Collective decisions are widespread
in group-living animals such as social insects, birds,
fishes, and many other living collectives, rely on
simple interaction mechanisms to do so. Collective
decision-making behaviors focus on how robots
influence each other in making decisions [11]. As
shown in Figure 3, collective behaviors include
spatially organizing behaviors, navigation behaviors,
decision-making behaviors, human interaction
behaviors, and other behaviors [12].
Swarm robotics focuses on the study of distributed
robotics systems composed of a large number of
independent and autonomous robots. Nature provides
us with abundant examples of how large numbers of
individuals can make decisions without the
coordination of a central authority [13]. Robots in the
swarms need a mechanism to explore the
environment. The ability to make decisions
collectively is a fundamental pillar for the
development of autonomous robot swarms. An
example of swarm robotics is shown in Figure 4 [2].
The three main inherent, desirable properties of
swarm robotics [14]:
1. Robustness: This is the ability of the system to
continue to operate despite failures in the
3. International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development @ www.ijtsrd.com eISSN: 2456-6470

individuals. The swarm robotic system should be
able to operate despite disturbances from the
environment or the malfunction of its individuals.
2. Flexibility: The ability of the system to offer
solutions to a variety of tasks by utilizing
different coordination strategies. Swarm robotics
aim to attain a variety of tasks. Swarm robotics
enables flexibility because of the distributed and
self-organized nature of the swarm.
3. Scalability: Scalability means that the systems
must be able to work with different sizes of
groups. The swarm should be able to operate
under a wide range of group sizes and support
large number of individuals without impacting
performance considerably.
In addition to these properties, the following main
distinguishing characteristics of swarm robotics are
important [15,16]:
1. Robots must be autonomous, able to sense, and
actuate in a real environment.
2. The number of robots in the swarm must be large
or at least the control rules allow it.
3. Robots in a swarm only interact with close peers
and the neighboring environment. They do not
need global knowledge nor supervision to
operate.
4. As swarms are decentralized and self-organized,
individual robots can dynamically allocate
themselves to different tasks and hence meet the
requirements of specific environments.
5. A robot swarm is characterized by high
redundancy due to the large number of robots
composing it. Such redundancy prevents robot
swarms from having a single point of failure.
6. A robot smarm is also characterized by its ability
to act in a coordinated way without the presence
of a coordinator or an external controller.
7. The interactions among the individuals are based
on simple behavioral rules that exploit only local
information that the individuals exchange directly
or via the environment,
8. The overall behavior of the system results from
the interactions of individuals with each other and
with their environment.
9. Swarm robotics promotes the development of
systems that are able to deal with a broad
spectrum of environments and operating
conditions.
10. Coordination is distributed, so that scalability
becomes one of the properties of the system.
Some of these characteristics are illustrated in Figure
5 [17]. Based on the above properties, it is possible to
design swarm robotic system that are scalable,
parallel, and fault tolerant.
APPLICATIONS OF SWARM ROBOTS
Potential applications for swarm robotics are many.
Typical applications of swarm robotics are demining,
tracking, cleaning, planetary or underwater
exploration, search and rescue missions,
manufacturing, construction efforts, environmental
remediation, medical applications, precision
agriculture, supply chain management, military
reconnaissance, and surveillance. Swarms can be
useful natural disasters or accidents. Other
applications include the following [18]:
They are used in tasks that demand
miniaturization such as nanorobotics and
microbotics. Flying microrobots could be
instructed to pollinate a field.
They are used in search and rescue missions.
Swarms of robots could be sent to places that
rescue-workers cannot reach safely and explore
the unknown environment. Drone swarms are
used in target search, drone displays, and
delivery.
They are used in micro aerial vehicles which have
been tested in tasks of autonomous surveillance.
Autonomous swarms are used in manufacturing
and known as swarm 3D printing. This is
particularly useful in cases where traditional 3D
printing is not able to be utilized due to hardware
size constraints.
Swarm robotics has been used to investigate the
conditions under which some complex social
behaviors might result out of an evolutionary
process.
Swarm robotics can be used to detect chemical
leaks or pollution.
Swarm robotics is promising in solving the
problem object transportation.
In the military, by leveraging unmanned aerial
vehicles (UAVs) acting together as a swarm,
better battlefield awareness can be reached. The
US Army is already using swarm robotics
detecting and destroying any type of unmanned
vehicles. Swarms of military robots can form an
autonomous army.
In civil engineering, particularly in disaster relief
situations, swarms of micro-robots could self-
assemble to build temporary structures such as
bridges

In agriculture, swarm of robotics can be used to
support local navigation and discerning weeds
from cultivated plants. Robot swarms will enable
precise farming.
Swarming aerial robots autonomouslyoperate in a
complex 3-D world such as an airspace that is
getting increasingly crowded with drones and
commercial airplanes.
Some of these application of swarm robotics are
displayed in Figure 6 [17].
BENEFITS
Swarm robots have the characteristics of being
simple, robust, and low cost, so that they could be
manufactured and deployed in mass. Swarm robotics
is getting increasing attention in the robotics
community due to its many benefits. Perhaps the
major advantage of swarm robotics is that it can
provide good solutions where other traditional search
techniques fall short. The inherent characteristics of
swarm robots allow then to achieve scalable, flexible
and fault-tolerant exploration and mapping. The
possible real commercial applications of swarm
robotics will take place when robots get to be mass
produced and the costs of building swarms of robots
decrease [17].
Some other advantages of swarm robotic systems
include the following [1]:
Robots are autonomous that can cope with their
environmental changes.
Robots can combine their powers and abilities to
form complex structures and offer unlimited
features.
A robot swarm could autonomously perform
simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)
by using self-organized exploration schemes to
navigate in hazardous environments.
A robot swarm is suitable for performing
missions in unknown environments in which the
risk of failure of individual robots is high.
A robot swarm is most useful in situations where
the main constraint is time or cost rather than high
precision.
With a swarm, one can implement tasks that
would be difficult if not impossible for larger
robots to do in cost effective manner.
The inherent characteristics of swarm robots
allow then to achieve scalable, flexible, and fault-
tolerant exploration and mapping.
The systems are flexible. That means they can be
applied in different fields and for a verity of tasks.
The systems are scalable. That means all robots
can manage to obtain its goals no matter how big
or small the swarm is.
Parallelism makes the systems work more faster.
Parallelism means tasks can be divided into sub
tasks that can be allocated to different robots.
Robots are designed very simply, that means they
are also cost effective.
CHALLENGES
In spite of its potential to promote robustness,
scalability and flexibility, swarm robotics has yet to
be adopted for solving real-world problems. Several
challenges are preventing the real-world uptake of
swarm robotics systems. Scalable applications are still
far away.
Swarm robotics is far from being considered a mature
technology due to the following challenges [11,21]:
Miniaturization and cost are key constraints in
building large multi-robot systems.
Integrating all the sensors in the swarm efficiently
for cooperation is challenging.
Fault tolerance is an open issue in swarm robotics
since the most common way to produce a map in
a multi-robot system implies some sort of
centralization and hence a single point of failure.
Reaching a consensus in a decentralized system
requires additional delays and data sharing, which
cannot be neglected for cost- or time-constrained
applications.
Swarm-robotic systems are usually stochastic,
nonlinear, so building mathematical models for
validation and optimization is hard.
There is a need to precisely figure out how to
describe a swarm robotics system in a
mathematical model that predicts the system
behaviors.
Lack of standard definition for swarm robotics
system and application problems.
CONCLUSION
Swarm robotics is the use of numerous, autonomous
robotics to accomplish a given complex task which an
individual robots cannot perform. Swarm robotics is
an area of research that is inspired by swarm
intelligence and robotics. It has its origins in swarm
intelligence. It is an attractive field of research that
applies swarm intelligence to groups of simple
homogeneous robots. More information about swarm
robotics can be found in the books in [22-28] and the
