GlowBots

GlowBots are small wheeled robots that develop complex relationships between each other and with their owner. They develop attractive patterns which are affected both by user interaction and communication between the robots. The project shows how robots can interact with humans in subtle and sustainable ways for entertainment and enjoyment. The GlowBots were developed based on particular transfer scenarios and personas, inspired by the marginal practice of owning spiders as snakes.

The GlowBots project is part of the European Union project ECAgents.
