This is cool as my robots will self-assemble by itself after it has been wacked by my “lovely” daughter. But then, just wish that the future A.I. robots are not like Will’s one… (I,Robot)
The robots come in two colors, yellow (Y) and green (G), and float around on a cushion of air like pucks on an air hockey table. Each robot is programmed to latch onto a green robot on one side and a yellow robot on the other to form 5-robot strings such as YGGYY or GYYGG.
The robots also have a built-in mechanism to correct any errors they might make. Each robot is able to check the color of its neighboring block and will unlatch itself if the sequence is not correct.
