Robot makers are borrowing the idea of the harmonious and simple but effective living nature of the bee and and communities to create artificial swarms with the hope that they will be well suited to searching or surveying unknown environments.

During the 'feeling' activity, we were not able to guess the emotions that the people portrayed in the image whereas the robots were able to. Issues such as reliability comes to play because how accurate robots can be when guessing a human's emotion.

This stuff is quite interesting although wonder where we can apply this in real life, making a model of millipede for example is quite useless.
Using robots as musicians like the robot who looks like M.J is quite cool and it just shows the extent humans have researched in developing robots for entertainment.
