Synchronization of Fireflies can Improve or Inspire Robotic Swarm

Seelu Palai

Despite their simple brains, synchronized fireflies havesomething to show us about AI. A recent discovery on theinsect's amazing light shows could help researchers acquire freshinsight into swarm robotics. It seems, the synchronized fireflies'light displays are even more subtle than scientists realized, andit's to try to with the insect's three-dimensional positioning. Theyfound that fireflies behave differently after they are alone versusin groups. In seems, synchronized fireflies what their neighborsdo, rather than blinking consistent with any inherent rhythm.Then they modify their blinking pattern to match those aroundthem.
