![]() Note that military drone swarms, unlike lightshow drones or flocking birds, can be be widely separated.Įven basic swarming makes drones far more effective than working in an unco-ordinated mass. An operator directs the swarm to the right general area, and the largely autonomous swarm can do the rest. ![]() Similar de-centralized approaches allow drone swarms to spread out to search a wide area, or ‘de-conflict’ to ensure they do not all attack the same target. Reynolds principles were quickly taken up by Hollywood if you see a flock of CGI birds or bats (or an army of orcs), rather than being individually specified they will be following a swarming algorithm. Reynolds showed how large groups could move toward a destination or avoid obstacles with a seamlessly fluidic agility - there's a video showing algorithmic flocking in action here. ![]() simulations - or real-life drone swarm flight control Wikicommons - public domain Three simple rules developed by Craig Reynolds produce complex flocking behavor for computer.
