- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider what a robot needs to function effectively.
Question 5.
You are tasked with designing a swarm of robots for tunnel inspection. Discuss how you would implement stigmergy and local sensing to ensure efficient operation.
Show hintHide hint
Think about signal systems and how they can help organize tasks.
Question 6.
In a scenario where one robot fails in a collective task, explain how local sensing could help other robots compensate for the lost work.
Show hintHide hint
Consider how robots might 'see' their environment and how teamwork could express that.
