Michigan Tech researchers are developing a team of robots that can autonomously rebuild electrical networks in the event the power gets knocked out.
The robots map out obstacles and string together power lines all on their own. They can carry their own batteries, or could be outfitted with generators or solar cells to recharge themselves and other robots on the team.
The researchers think their robots might one day navigate a damaged cell tower site to restore cellular service after a natural disaster; or coordinate with search-and-rescue robots to quickly recharge their power supplies. Read more...
