Ants + robots = win"[Bull Ant's] colour vision is likely to be as good as that of humans and old world primates"http://t.co/TNcvqT3q0W

"optical flow measurement capability operated independently from ants' odometer mechanism" https://t.co/L1swfPXGZR

Ants: line followers?"employ image matching both for returning to a place and for following a fixed route."https://t.co/Vm6DoOts0Q

Distributed sorting algorithms in ants, applicable to swarm robotics.(is this also visible in humans?)https://t.co/41HJ0CqDPZ

Some Ants are farming machines."But then you’d have to also talk about human agriculture as a symbiosis too." https://t.co/tuom4NPYa1

Is anyone working on machine vision models that include a system for object permanence in videos and not simple object detection per frame? I know there's this attempt at modeling bee's navigation, but not quite the same thing. https://t.co/l9dcD8G13K

I know Skydio is doing some neat stuff with real time modeling using optical flow stuff, but I'm interested in neuronal based systems vs the traditional computational approaches they seem to be using:https://t.co/DaPdulr84f

Don't get me wrong, we're getting really really good at single frame detection algorithms, but as soon as anything is occluded it's like the computer is a 2 year old who thinks they are hiding by covering their eyes.https://t.co/0ks8apoOCV
