Centibots were robots created around 2003 and designed to coordinate in large numbers in order to achieve a single goal, an early example of swarm robotics. The $2.2 million project was sponsored by DARPA and had principal investigator SRI International along with other investigators University of Washington's Robotics and State Estimation Lab, Stanford University and ActivMedia Robotics.[1][2][3] SRI's Artificial Intelligence Center was known for previous work in robotics, in particular Shakey the robot and related research.
There were a total of 100 robots, 80 of which were ActivMedia Robotics Amigobots and the remaining 20 were ActivMedia Pioneer 2 AT bots.[4][5] The robots were used to map out an area or locate an object of interest.[4][6][7]
