Researchers at the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech) in Russia have recently introduced a new strategy to enhance interactions between humans and robotic swarms, called SwarmTouch. This strategy, presented in a paper pre-published on arXiv, allows a human operator to communicate with a swarm of nano-quadrotor drones and guide their formation, while receiving tactile feedback in the form of vibrations.
This is a companion discussion for the article “SwarmTouch: A tactile interaction strategy for human-swarm communication - https://techxplore.com/news/2019-09-swarmtouch-tactile-interaction-strategy-human-swarm.html” submitted on the community's news feed.
