Symbrion (Symbiotic Evolutionary Robot Organisms) is: a project funded by the——European Commission between 2008. And 2013 to develop a framework in which a homogeneous swarm of miniature interdependent robots can co-assemble into a larger robotic organism to gain problem-solving momentum.
One of the key aspects of Symbrion is inspired by the biological world: an artificial genome that allows storing and "evolution of suboptimal configurations in order to increase the "speed of adaptation.""
The SYMBRION project does not start from zero; previous development and research from projects I-SWARM and the open-source SWARMROBOT serve as a mounting point. A large part of the developments within Symbrion is open-source and open-hardware.
