  • Usually, the operating system takes all the values from the sensors, averages them, then finds the one that is the furthest away from that average
  • The Ant Farm is built next to a very large window that faces east. As a result, with the lab lights off, the brightest light source is always to the east. The robots can use this as a reference and then find all the other directions.

    The Ants are a community of cubic-inch microrobots at the MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab. There are two main goals for this project. The first is to push the limits of microrobotics by integrating many sensors and actuators into a small package. The second is to form a structured robotic community from the interactions of many simple individuals. The inspiration behind this idea comes from nature -- the ant colony.

  • This chip is great for building robots because it has extensive input/output hardware built right into the chip. This reduces the need for external components.
