CoCoRo shoaling 2013
The EU-funded Collective Cognitive Robotics (CoCoRo) project has built a swarm of 41 autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) that show collective cognition. Throughout 2015 – The Year of CoCoRo – we will be uploading a new weekly video detailing the latest stage in its development. This video shows the “Lily” AUVs staying together and moving as a shoal using a communication-less bio-inspired algorithm.
To learn more about the project, see this introductory post, or check out all the videos from the Year of CoCoRo on Robohub.

How robots and bubbles could soon help clean up underwater litter
Everyone loves to visit the seaside, whether to enjoy the physical benefits of an exhilarating swim or simply to relax on the beach and catch some sun. But these simple life affirming pleasures are easily ruined by the presence of litter, which if persistent can have a serious negative impact on both the local environment and economy. However, help is at hand to ensure the pristine nature of our coastlines.
