This photo courtesy of Mike Rubenstein and Science/AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science), shows KiloBots, a swarm of one thousand simple but collaborative robots. Without any helping hand, more than 1,000 simple robots can swarm themselves into complex shape like a star or the letter K, US researchers said on Agust 14, 2014. The project is the latest breakthrough in robotics from a team at Harvard University that has also created robots inspired by termites. Called Kilobots, these 1,024 simple machines were designed to act like bees and ants, using vibration motors to glide across surfaces and infrared lights to communicate with each other. == RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE / MANDATORY CREDIT: "AFP PHOTO HANDOUT-Science/AAAS/Michael Rubenstein"/ NO MARKETING - NO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS – NO A LA CARTE SALES / DISTRIBUTED AS A SERVICE TO CLIENTS ==
