“At first glance, it may seem like these kilobots are just for fun. Why would a tiny, desktop robot that moves around be important? Well, the goal of swarm robotics is to allow a large number of robots to work together on the same task. Think of robots working in a mine or tiny nanobots that will have medical uses. There are an endless number of potential applications from building 3D models to working in search and rescue or even just playing capture the flag.” via Singularity Blog
