Swarm Robotics and the Role of Blockchain
Blockchain is a decentralized method of recording transactions and allowing communication between different entities on a network. Everyone on the network has access to the entire network and its history. The transactions or actions performed are impossible to tamper, alter or falsify for anyone. Thus, the major advantages of a blockchain are transparency and security. We have taken a bird’s eye view of blockchain in previous blogs; now, we shall look at a very specific field of application – Swarm Robotics. We shall try to understand what Swarm Robotics entails, its applications, and how Blockchain is aiding its development. What is Swarm Robotics? The dictionary definition of swarm states that…
