群体智慧与机器人协作的应用(2025)Swarm Intelligence and Robotic Collaboration Application Report, 2025 |
||||||
群体智能(SI),又称集体智能,是指多个智能实体(例如人类、机器和其他智能系统)进行协作和资源整合,以实现超越单一实体能力的智能表现。其核心概念是将群体中每个个体的知识、经验和判断力整合起来,从而更有效率地解决问题、做出决策或创新。群体智能源自于对生物体集体行为的模仿。它是一种计算范式和智慧模式,其中大量简单的个体透过局部互动并遵循简单的规则(无需集中控制),作为一个整体创造出复杂的智慧行为。例如,蚁群寻找最短路径的能力,或鸟群的同步飞行。
机器人协作是指多个相同或不同类型的机器人,在基于即时感测资料和预定义规则的统一协作控制系统下协同工作,完成单一机器人无法完成的复杂任务,从而实现 "1+1>2" 的协同效应。目标机器人包括工业设备,例如工业机器人手臂和AGV(自动导引车),以及消费性设备,例如服务机器人和医疗机器人。
群体智慧技术是机器人协作的 "协调大脑" 。群体智慧为多机器人系统的高效协作提供了核心逻辑。例如:
1. 群体智慧的分散式控制机制避免了 "单点故障" 对系统整体运作的影响,提高了协作的稳健性。
2.群体智慧的局部讯息互动机制降低了讯息传输成本。机器人无需获取所有全局资讯;透过与相邻机器人交换位置资讯和任务状态,即可实现最优的全局任务分配。
机器人协作是群体智慧技术应用和解决复杂现实问题的重要场景,最终有助于群体智慧技术的最佳化。
群体智慧与机器人协作可以克服个体能力的限制。
与个体智慧相比,群体智慧与机器人协作能够提高效率、拓展边界、增强系统韧性并降低成本与能耗。
个体智能着重于 "增强个体能力" 。所有感知、决策和执行模组都整合在一个机器人中,该机器人利用自身的感测器(摄影机、雷达)和演算法独立处理问题,无需依赖外部设备或其他机器人。群体智慧与机器人协作的核心在于 "优化集体效率" 。 多个机器人透过通讯网路连接,共同完成单一机器人无法完成的任务。每个机器人只负责一部分工作,透过资料共享和任务分配实现 "1+1>2" 的协同效应。
群体智慧与机器人协作的关键技术:任务分配、协同控制与即时通讯
与个体智慧相比,群体智慧与机器人协作的关键技术主要关注 "如何使多个个体形成一个高效有序的整体" 。其核心在于解决三大挑战:任务划分、行动协调和资讯分享。关键技术包括:
1. 动态任务分配与调度:个体智慧只需“决定要做什么”,而协作系统则将复杂任务分解为子任务,并合理地分配给每个机器人。同时,为了适应任务变化,在不确定的环境中,由于任务的临时增减、机器人故障等原因,资源分配方案必须持续调整,而不是一次性的静态分配。
2. 路径规划与避障:当多个机器人在同一空间运作时,可能会出现路径衝突(例如碰撞)和资源衝突(例如争用相同充电位元)。需要协同控制来确保有序运作。避障策略使用路径规划演算法为每个机器人规划路径以避免重迭,并采用时间调度(例如机器人轮流通过狭窄通道)来避免碰撞。在工业环境中, "数位孪生" 技术也正在被应用,它允许机器人在虚拟环境中预演其运动,从而实现早期碰撞检测和解决。
3. 协调控制:这包括运动同步控制和力/力矩协调控制。本质上,其目标是在任务执行过程中,确保多个机器人的位置、速度、力和其他参数依照预先定义的规则保持一致,从而实现高效协调。协调控制围绕着几个核心目标展开,包括时间同步、轨迹同步和力/力矩同步,以确保协调的精确度和稳定性。
4. 即时通讯:这是高效机器人协调的基础。它负责设备之间以及设备与系统之间的资料传输和交互,包括位置资讯、任务进度和故障资讯。
本报告探讨了群体智慧和机器人协调产业,分析了群体智慧技术的定义、特征、发展历程、关键技术、发展趋势和挑战,以及群体智慧技术在机器人协调领域的主要供应商和应用。
Research on swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration: Swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration will break through the boundaries of individual intelligence and will be widely adopted across various industries.
The "Swarm Intelligence and Robotic Collaboration Application Report 2025" released by ResearchInChina analyzes and summarizes the definition, characteristics, core algorithms, core value, development history, technical architecture and key technologies, technology trends, challenges, key industry applications (including include intelligent warehousing and logistics, performing arts and entertainment, industrial manufacturing, consumer services, fire and rescue, etc.) and suppliers of swarm intelligence technology and robot collaborative applications.
Swarm intelligence (SI), also known as collective intelligence, refers to the method of generating intelligent performance that exceeds the capabilities of a single individual through the collaboration of multiple intelligent agents (such as humans, machines, and other intelligent systems) and resource integration. Its core idea is to achieve more efficient problem-solving, decision-making, or innovation by integrating the knowledge, experience, and judgment of individuals within a group. Swarm intelligence originates from the simulation of biological group behavior. It is a computational paradigm and intelligent mode in which a large number of simple individuals can emerge globally complex intelligent behaviors through local interaction and following simple rules without centralized control, such as ant colonies finding the shortest path and flocks of birds flying in sync.
Robotic collaboration refers to the process by which multiple robots of the same or different types work together under the unified collaborative control system, based on real-time perception data and preset rules, to complete complex tasks that a single robot cannot accomplish independently, achieving a "1+1>2" synergy. These robots can be industrial-grade equipment such as industrial robotic arms and AGVs (automated guided vehicles), or civilian equipment such as service robots and medical robots.
Swarm intelligence technology is the "collaborative brain" for robotic collaboration. Swarm intelligence provides the core logic for "how to collaborate efficiently" for multi-robot systems. For example, 1. the distributed control mechanism of swarm intelligence can avoid the impact of "single point failure" on the overall system operation and improve collaborative robustness; 2. the local information interaction mechanism of swarm intelligence reduces information transmission costs. Robots do not need to obtain all global information. They can achieve optimal global task allocation by exchanging position information and task status with neighboring robots. Robotic collaboration is a key scenario for the implementation of swarm intelligence technology and the solution of complex real-world problems, ultimately contributing to the optimization of swarm intelligence technology.
Swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration can break through the boundaries of individual capabilities.
Compared to individual intelligence, swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration can improve efficiency, expand boundaries, enhance system fault tolerance, and reduce costs and energy consumption.
Stand-alone intelligence focuses on "enhancing individual capabilities". All perception, decision-making and actuation modules are integrated on a single robot, which independently handles problems by relying on its own sensors (cameras, radar) and algorithms, without relying on external devices or other robots. The core of swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration is "optimizing group efficiency," where multiple robots are connected through a communication network and work together to complete tasks that a single robot cannot accomplish. Each robot may only be responsible for a part of the work, achieving a "1+1>2" synergy through data sharing and task allocation.
Key technologies for swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration: task allocation, collaborative control, and real-time communication
Compared to individual intelligence, the key technologies of swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration mainly revolve around "how to enable multiple individuals to form an efficient and orderly whole." The core is to handle three major challenges: task division, behavior coordination, and information sharing. Key technologies include:
1.Dynamic task allocation and scheduling: Individual intelligence only needs to "decide what to do", while collaborative systems break down complex tasks into sub-tasks and allocate them reasonably to each robot. At the same time, in response to task changes, the allocation solution should be continuously adjusted in uncertain environments (such as temporary addition or removal of tasks, robot failures), rather than a one-time static assignment.
2.Path planning and obstacle avoidance: When multiple robots work in the same space, path conflicts (such as collisions) or resource competition (such as competing for the same charging spot) are likely to occur. Cooperative control is necessary to ensure orderly behavior. Obstacle avoidance strategies use path planning algorithms to plan non-overlapping paths for each robot, or use time scheduling (such as having robots pass through narrow passages in sequence) to avoid conflicts. In industrial settings, "digital twin" technology will also be introduced to rehearse robot movements in a virtual environment, allowing for the early detection and resolution of conflicts.
3.Collaborative control: This includes motion synchronization control and force/torque collaborative control. Essentially, it aims to ensure that the position, velocity, force, and other parameters of multiple robots remain consistent according to preset rules when performing tasks, so as to achieve efficient collaboration. Collaborative control revolves around several core objectives, including time synchronization, trajectory synchronization, and force/torque synchronization, to ensure the accuracy and stability of collaboration.
4.Real-time communication: This is the foundation for efficient robotic collaboration. It is responsible for data transmission and interaction between devices and between devices and systems, including location information, task progress, and fault information.
Swarm intelligence and collaborative robot application: will be widely adopted across all industries
The application of swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration spans various industries, including warehousing and logistics, entertainment, industrial manufacturing, commercial consumer services, fire and rescue, security inspection, agriculture, and healthcare. Examples include intelligent sorting and warehousing in warehousing and logistics, drone art, robot stage performances, collaborative assembly in manufacturing, collaborative food delivery in large restaurants/hotels, and air-ground collaborative rescue.
Currently,the application of swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration in the field of intelligent warehousing and logistics is relatively mature, covering cargo loading/unloading/handling, cargo classification/sorting, collaborative handling of large items, stacking and warehousing, cross-warehouse scheduling, flexible production lines, and last-mile delivery. For example, the HaiQ Intelligent Warehouse Management Software Platform of Hai Robotics realizes "goods-to-person" picking through a variety of equipment such as bin robots, lurking autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and intelligent forklift robots, and completes collaborative operations such as inbound and outbound, inventory, sorting, and handling.
The application of swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration in the field of drone art is maturing, with China leading the world in this field and repeatedly breaking Guinness World Records in terms of an increasing number of and scale of performances.
In September 2024, DAMODA broke two Guinness World Records in Shenzhen with 10,197 drones by controlling the most drones simultaneously with a single computer and forming the largest number of aerial patterns.
In April 2025, DAMODA set a new Guinness World Record for the most drones forming aerial patterns with a performance of 10,518 drones in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The light show celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification.
In June 2025, DAMODA set a Guinness World Record for the "Largest aerial image formed by multirotors/drones" with 11,787 drones in Chongqing.
In October 2025, Highgreat Technology successfully challenged two Guinness World Records at the 17th Liuyang Fireworks Culture Festival in Hunan Province. It broke the world record for "most drones simultaneously by a single computer" with 15,947 drones, and also broke the world record for "most fireworks launched by drones in the air" with 7,496 fireworks.
The application of swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration has shifted from "single-mode robotic collaboration" to "multimodal robotic collaboration" and from "structured scenarios" to "complex dynamic scenarios". In the future, with the support of 5G/6G communications, digital twins, brain-inspired computing and other technologies, swarm intelligence and robotic collaboration will empower all walks of life and facilitate deeper and larger-scale application. Unmanned factories, unmanned restaurants, and unmanned farms are coming soon, promoting changes in social production and lifestyles.
