New research sheds light on how blockchain technology, a central component in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, can be employed to protect swarms of robots. Through a series of experiments with both actual and simulated robots, the study illustrates how blockchain can enable a swarm to counteract harmful robots without requiring human interference, enhancing the potential for independent and safe robot swarm deployments.

Unleashing the potential of drone swarms through dynamic response and coordinated control is one of the latest frontiers in robotics research. Associate Professor Aaron Becker, along with his team of experts from Northeastern University, is spearheading efforts to develop algorithms inspired by the collective movements of birds and fish. Their goal is to enable drones to make local, intelligent decisions in real-time, enhancing the efficiency and adaptability of swarm operations.
