Ants coordinate highly complex foraging and traffic systems without any leaders, relying entirely on local interactions and chemical cues. Pheromone trails encode information about distance, food ...
Biomimicry, a term originating from the word roots bios (life), and mimesis (to imitate), describes the imitation of systems and processes in nature that inspire solutions to human problems.
Pheromone trails encode information about distance, food quality, and danger, allowing colonies to adapt and optimize paths in real time. Ant-inspired strategies, like ant colony optimization, inform ...
