Please describe the Wild Card (approx. 150 words)

Collective robotics - a new research field - where a large number of simple robotics can collectively solve complex problems. Collectively working robots are fully adaptive in behaviour and functionality and upon special conditions can undergo evolutionary processes at a specific level and thus create artificial societies.

Keywords

collective robotics, robotics, complex problem solving

Type of event

Human planned (e.g. terrorist attack or funded scientific breakthrough)

Type of systems affected

Human-built Systems - E.g. organisations, processes, technologies, etc.
