Adobe Stock Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh developed materials that can dynamically organize themselves similarly to how some creatures create swarms.
Inspired by the swarm habits of certain animals, researchers have developed a system of self-oscillating flexible materials that can dynamically organize themselves that they said can be used to design future robotic systems.
A team from the University of Pittsburgh’s (Pitt’s) Swanson School of Engineering studied Japanese tree frogs in their research, which fall under the category of “swarmalators,” or entities that coordinate both their spatial movements and inherent time clocks when moving into a swarm formation, researchers said.
