    Just noticed that you're working in the field of robotics. How small the world can be sometimes ;) Here's a video of some stuff I did during my doctorate thesis, probably something for your collection: https://youtu.be/FqMP_AIkDj8

    Alexander Kettler wow, that was very interesting. You also used swarms to transport objects, in my case it is a heavy object which they can only move together by cooperation. The Wanda robots seem very similar to the E-Pucks! What was your thesis about?

    Jessica Meyer that sounds interesting! My thesis was about tools for the development of swarm algorithms. The wanda robots and the experiment in the video are just one part of it, the other two parts are a simulation, and a mathematical model for describing swarms on a macroscopic level, based on the boltzmann equation.

    Alexander Kettler is you thesis open sourced? Can we find it somewhere online? ;)
    In mine, I use genetic algorithms to evolve arm-shaped structures for the robots to better cooperate. A short video explaining part of it is pinned in my profile here.

    Jessica Meyer Nice video. Evolutionary algorithms are always fascinating :) My thesis is not open sourced unfortunately. It's published by the Dr. Hut-Verlag (http://www.dr.hut-verlag.de/9783843907514.html) The title is "Werkzeuge für den Entwurf und die Analyse von Algorithmen in der kollektiven Robotik" (and yes it's in German, sorry ;-)

#vegetarian   #vegan   #evolution   Originally shared by Sean P. O. MacCath-Moran +Eve Volve: "Meat allowed us to evolve" Really? I think you're mistaken to believe this is a certainty, but what causes you to believe this is so, +Eve Volve ? As I understand it, there have been healthy, thriving vegetarians and vegans for as long as there have been humans. Some were so due to moral or ethical concerns, others due to resource utilization issues, others due to cultural taboos. All other factors being equal, the veg(etari)ans have thrived, and continue to do so. For some more recent historical examples of vegans, we can look at Pythagoras, the "Pythagoreans" (as vegans were called for the following 1300 years), along with a plethora of like-minded contemporaries (e.g. goo.gl/lgDBL ). Buddhists, Jainists, et al., have been doing grand as veg(etari)ans since around the 6th century BCE. Prior to this, there's compelling reason to believe that most people were veg...
