Bye Swarmbots, Hello Swarmanoids - Swarmanoid on jatkoprojekti Swarm-bots projektille.

The footbots will transport objects on the ground level, while handbots with specialized climbing and grappling features take to the walls. Some eyebots equipped with visual sensors will operate attached to the ceiling, overseeing the action below and feeding information to their robotic colleagues; others will fly.
