A drone swarm reshapes itself around moving obstacles
What changedThe controller represents swarm shapes as probability fields that reconfigure around uncertain obstacles. Self-healing formations avoid assigning each drone one permanent spot. The result is concrete, but it remains research evidence rather than a production guarantee.

The useful part
Why it matters
Self-healing formations avoid assigning each drone one permanent spot.
Worth doing
What to do next
Reproduce the core result against your own data, hardware and failure cases before depending on it.
Keep in mind
Good to know
Most scenarios are simulations. The outdoor test used four drones.
