But what a more accurate recreation of a human A robot made of various components and wires all cobbled together Or one made of billions of tiny robots all working together like the atoms that make up everything around us Researchers at Harvard University, clearly inspired by the idea that one day life can be recreated using countless tiny robots, have been developing and building their Kilobots en masse for years now. Exemplifying the idea of team work, the Kilobots started off with just twenty-five units all working together to accomplish a task, then a hundred, and now a thousand. Controlled by sophisticated swarm software and built-i
