FEATURED ROBOT MODELS

                     SWARM ROBOTS
                       
                       SWARM ROBOTS PULLING A CHILD                                   Have you ever seen a group of ants collectively performing a specific task like picking up granules of sugar and taking them into their storage places? They do so by forming small groups where every ant collects one or two granules and together collects relatively large quantities. In a similar way, Robots performs some complex tasks with the help of small, simpler Robots each performing simple tasks. They are called 'Swarm Robots". Each Robot is a member of the group and has its own dedicated purposes and altogether performs big, complex operations. Their attractive feature is that, even if any of the member Robot fails, the swarm can continue its action with the help of the available components. They exhibits a wonderful behavior called as 'Swarm Intelligence'. This concept was however developed by frequent observations of social insects like ants and bees and setting up a system that can mimic its behavior. Researches are still going on in this field, to explore more possibilities of Swarm Robotics. 
       
  LINE FOLLOWER ROBOTS

                           
                          
                         A WALL FOLLOWER ROBOT PERFORMANCE
              Line Follower Robots are robots that detects and follows a specific line or path drawn on a surface. The path is to be defined well and it should be highlighted on a surface with any contrast color relative to the color of the surface, or the path can be invisible like that of a magnetic field. This is made possible with the help of IR (Infra Red) Sensors installed inside the body of such Robots that helps in recognizing the lines. They are self operating mobile machines that can be used in various fields like military, defense, transportation, industries etc.. The Line follower Robots have upgraded much, and today we can also find wall follower Robots in common.
