Episode notes
Difference Between Drone Shows and Swarms
- Some drone shows are pre-programmed synchronized flights, not true swarms.
- True swarming requires independent decision-making, not just following centrally controlled paths.
Bird Murmurations as Natural Swarms
- Bird murmurations exemplify natural swarm behavior with emergent coordinated movement without a leader.
- Each bird senses and communicates locally to stay coordinated and avoid collisions.
Characteristics of Swarm Decision-Making
- Swarms act as single, independent, logical, distributed, decentralized decision-making entities.
- There's no central leader; intelligence and decisions emerge collectively from all agents.
