Ars Electronica Mix: Inside Futurelab

In this lecture, Peter Holzkorn, researcher at the Ars Electronica Futurelab, will tell you more about Artificial collectives and what the Ars Electronica Futurelab is currently researching in this area. Artificial collectives are systems composed of multiple autonomous information or software agents, mobile robots, or nodes in a sensor or communication network. In the future, such systems will be responsible for many important tasks, such as highway traffic control, disaster response, toxic spill monitoring and cleanup, and exploration of other planets.
