PBS Program Name:
ARC 19/20 Discovery
Grant Program:
Discovery Projects
Grant Activity:
Behaviour Bootstrapping for Ad Hoc, Heterogeneous Robot Swarms
Purpose:
This project aims to develop algorithms to permit groups of robots to evolve coordinated, collective, swarm behaviours. Groups of robots will be conceptualised as developmental swarm organisms with an initially limited set of behaviours, but equipped with structures and processes to permit them to evolve new behaviours. This project expects to deliver the next generation of computational intelligence technologies to enable humans to harness large groups of robots for new kinds of transport and inspection tasks in smart cities, smart farming and defence. The expected outcomes of the project include new software frameworks for distributed developmental learning, extending developmental robotics to evolutionary robot swarms.
