Abstract
One or more systems, methods, and/or computer program products of use provided herein relate to swarm robot collaboration for light beam modulation. A system can comprise a photosensitive resin tank. The system can further comprise a plurality of swarm robots moving inside the photosensitive resin tank, where respective swarm robots can occupy positions relative to one another to modulate respective direction of light beams emitted by a subset of the plurality of swarm robots.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a photosensitive resin tank;
- and
- a plurality of swarm robots moving inside the photosensitive resin tank, wherein respective swarm robots occupy positions relative to one another to modulate respective direction of light beams emitted by a subset of the plurality of swarm robots.
A computer program product for collaboration of swarm robots for light beam modulation, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor of a swarm robot to cause the processor to:
- communicate with respective swarm robots of a first set of swarm robots and a second set of swarm robots to cause the respective swarm robots to occupy positions relative to one another inside a photosensitive resin tank to modulate respective direction of light beams emitted by the first set of swarm robots.
A method comprising:
- occupying, by respective swarm robots of a plurality of swarm robots, positions relative to one another inside a photosensitive resin tank;
- and
- modulating, by the respective swarm robots, respective direction of light beams emitted by a subset of the plurality of swarm robots.
