Thanks for the visit and stellar talk!

Giovanni Reina@joefresna.bsky.social · last yr.

Always great to visit the @bristoluni.bsky.social fellows and catch up on all their wonderful research in collective behaviour and swarm robotics. Thanks, @dgarzonramos.com, @sabinehauert.bsky.social Jonathan & Nikolai et al. for fantastic hospitality

This was an awesome collaboration with Mario di Bernardo's lab and builds on the foundational development of the #dome with @sabinehauert.bsky.social. Also, wouldn't have been possible without support from the @ukri.org and @royalsociety.org. @bristolbiodesign.bsky.social @bristolbiosci.bsky.social

Excellent to see the launch of the UK Smart Machines 2035 Strategy. www.gov.uk/government/p... "What Smart Machines look like in 2035 won’t be driven by technology developments alone, but by the interplay of Smart Machines with society." Inspiring to work on this with the RGP.

We're delighted to announce that we've just launched our series meeting the 2025 AAAI / @acmsigai.bsky.social doctoral consortium participants. In this first interview, Kunpeng Xu tells us about his work on kernel representation learning for time series #AAAI2025

New paper out in which I, @sabinehauert.bsky.social, Matimba Swarma & Jonathan Ives take a deep dive into responsible swarm robotics. We set out for the first time a framework for the ethical governance of real-world swarms royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... #AIethics #robotethics #robot

On the ethical governance of swarm robotic systems in the real world | Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences

In this paper, we address the question: what practices would be required for the responsible design and operation of real-world swarm robotic systems? We argue that swarm robotic systems must be developed and operated within a framework of ethical ...

SWarm Holiday Wishes from the swarmies in Bristol!

Abandoned on the beach. Guess drones need a holiday too.

Posting updates about swarms, robots, and AI. Let's see who's around!
