UC Davis Scientists Teach Bots to Follow

UC Davis researchers have been working on robots picking up cues to follow one another. While humans unconsciously move their heads a fraction of a second before turning, Sanjay Joshi and his team have developed a control system that takes those cues into account.

Our thanks to Spaceboyjordo, etsy and his robotic pals.
