Complexity

Sorry for the long delay on posting, I'm kinda busy right now with several parallel projects and demands reaching deadlines (I hate those)...
Well, I'm really into complexity lately, found a nice book about complex systems (complex in a "standard" way, not the "mathematical" way with complex variables) talks about complexity on various kinds of dynamical systems: from thermal to demographics and economics, going through statistical physics!
My interest on complex systems is how the simple elements are organized (or self-organize) to give birth to their complex behavior, or how to develop agents with simple behaviors capable of control (or simple interact on a controlled way) with those systems.

Also, found a nice animation about our future and trillions of computers that has a proto-idea of "layered complexity", not very deep on this subject but I liked it:

Long Delay

Sorry for the long delay in posting! Those last weeks (including this one) had been tough...

But just to break the silence. A nice TED talk about one of my favorite themes: Biological inspired robotics. In this case locomotion:

Warming up

This blog is an attempt to register the development of my MSc degree thesis on swarm robotics.
So expect little tutorials, news about robotics and some desperate calls for help when I get stuck!
Ah! Just in case, you can know more about me and my research at the links on the sidebar.

Not too much by now, but I expect this to be useful for someone! (It will be for me =])

Just to give a taste, one of my preferred swarm robotics projects. the Swarm-Bots :
