Self-governed access control in open robot swarms using a blockchain-based DAO
Self-governed access control in open robot swarms using a blockchain-based DAO
This research introduces a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) framework for open robot swarms, enabling dynamic membership management and protection against malicious or faulty robots through smart contracts. The study outlines various governance mechanisms and validates a proof-of-concept system with both simulations and real-robot experiments, showing that DAO-based access control effectively maintains swarm integrity while keeping the number of compromised robots within acceptable limits.
The authors present a proof-of-concept implementation of a blockchain-based DAO to govern open robot swarms, demonstrating via simulation and real-robot validation that this approach can regulate membership and limit Byzantine infiltration while maintaining swarm functionality.
