ABSTRACT
When the swarm intelligence approach is applied to robotic systems, it is called “swarm robotics”.
Swarm robotics systems are made up of swarms of relatively simple and cooperating devices rather than of a single and powerful robot. The main idea is that a system of many simple devices that exploit distributed control and self-organization to coordinate their activities might be more robust to failures than a monolithic system such as a humanoid robot. In other words, the lack of a central controller-none of the robots is in charge of directing the swarm activity-and the redundancy in the robot swarm-individuals are interchangeable as they all have the same or very similar capabilities-makes a swarm robotics system very robust to failures. In fact, should one or a few individuals fail, the others can take over

Intelligent control technology is raised for the complexity and uncertainty of the controlled object, the environment and complex task.
