That kind of mobile perception is really important for robots that are going to move and act out in the world.

I'm going to give you a little status report on where we are in developing robots toward these ends.

The first three robots are all dynamically stabilized robots.

Now, one of the important things about making autonomous robots is to make them not do just exactly what you say, but make them deal with the uncertainty of what happens in the real world.

And believe me, getting it to do what it's supposed to do in those circumstances is a real challenge, but the result is something that's going to generalize and make robots much more autonomous than they would be otherwise.

Using the miracle of 3-D printing, we're starting to build parts of robots that look a lot more like the anatomy of an animal.

What are the other applications that you see for your robots?

Marc Raibert: You know, I think that robots that have the capabilities I've been talking about are going to be incredibly useful.

I think it won't be too long until we have robots like this in our homes, and one of the big needs is to take care of the aging and invalids.

I think that it won't be too long till we're using robots to help take care of our parents, or probably more likely, have our children help take care of us.

My work is about Nairobi pop bands that want to go to space or about seven-foot-tall robots that fall in love.

Someday, we may have robots as smart as people, artificial intelligence, AI.

One of our first robotic quests along this line was to create our very own colony of a thousand robots.

So very simple robots, but they could be programmed to exhibit collective intelligence, and that's what we were able to do.

It's quite small, about the size of a quarter, and you can program how it moves, but it can also wirelessly communicate with other robots, and it can measure distances from them.

So your first rule is a motion rule where a moving robot can move around other stationary robots.

So if I start with a blob of robots in a little pattern seed, it turns out that these two rules are sufficient for the group to be able to self-assemble a simple line pattern.

So here, you're going to see a thousand robots that are working together to self-assemble the letter K.

So any single robot is only talking to a small number of robots nearby it, and it's using its motion rule to move around the half-built structure just looking for a place to fit in based on its pattern rules.

So these are robots and rules in two dimensions, but we can also think about robots and rules in three dimensions.

So what if we could create robots that could build together?

And we can use that same idea to create rules for robots.

So here, you're going to see some simulated robots.

And with the right motion rules and the right pattern rules, we can actually get the robots to build whatever we want.

Or if, like my group, you are completely obsessed with army ants, then maybe one day we can make robots that can climb over literally anything including other members of their tribe, and self-assemble things out of their own bodies.

Each of these systems that I showed you brings us closer to having the mathematical and the conceptual tools to create our own versions of collective power, and this can enable many different kinds of future applications, whether you think about robots that build flood barriers or you think about robotic bee colonies that could pollinate crops or underwater schools of robots that monitor coral reefs, or if we reach for the stars and we thinking about programming constellations of satellites.

So, so far I've talked about rules for insects and for fish and for robots, but what about the rules that apply to our own human collective?

So in addition to working on improving the science of robot collectives, I also work on creating robots and thinking about rules that will improve our own scientific collective.

I believe that we can choose our rules, and we engineer not just robots but we can engineer our own human collective, and if we do and when we do, it will be beautiful.

But that is going to change by the convergence of two technologies: augmented reality and telepresence robots.
