00:30We are trying to apply this kind of collective behavior knowledge to many different systems.

00:48For example, we are developing with partners a spraying drone that you can see here.

00:55Precision agriculture will be able to do it with multiple drones in parallel to speed up the process.

01:03Obviously, military forces are very interested in all kinds of defense or attack possibilities

01:10when there is not a single unit but multiple units.

01:13If they take out one drone, the rest can still follow the mission, etc.

01:17There are very interesting distributed sensing applications in meteorology or air pollution, etc.
