| dc.description.abstract | Active matter research has been very prominent in the last decades. However, this field mostly investigates microscopic particles. For this reason, most of the studies so far rely on pure mathematics or numerical simulations to prove their points. In this project, we select a set of simulations and create macroscopic experimental setups to test the theoretical results. We use small self-propelling robots to emulate microscopic active matter in a large scale. In the end, we demonstrate that these macroscopic experiments are a good approximation of microscopic active systems. Our setups are useful for potential didactic applications. | sv |
