Smart robots that us soon to support? That is less likely than ‘dumb’ robots think Chris Verhoeven from the TU Delft. He thinks zwermrobots or on robots that a task can, for example, a brandmelderminidrone themselves on a high ceiling freeze.

The future of robotics is often sought in robots that are very smart can do everything. The man is preoccupied with self-propelled cars and smart robots to help us. At this time, we are even afraid of it. That is not entirely unjustified, because at this time, “smart” robots are still very clumsy and they make critical mistakes. Therefore, stepped associate professor Chris Verhoeven in the zwermrobotica. Or, as he himself says: ‘to Be Big by Staying Small’, which is the literal translation of Google Translate-vertaalrobot of ‘Big by staying small’.

With a team of students and phd students is Verhoeven doing everything to investigate around the theme ‘little things that a thing can’. Him it can not be crazy enough. Of rov’s as a network on the soil of a port must distribute to such pollution, and other things to measure; to the olfar network, a network of mini-satellietjes in the space that a huge telescope should provide everything that is broadcasting under 30 mhz frequency.

Verhoeven provides rather a large number of stupid robots that surround us to be anything for us to do. They need us, especially not in the way, because otherwise they will die. It would be almost fearful of robots that a thing very good can. Tweakers said Chris Verhoeven at a symposium in the Science Center of the TU Delft about his ideas. Listen to Chris in a brief interview with Tweakers.
