Didn't SmartDUST have this concept at least 10 years ago? And the military I'm sure had it before then.

The article talks about using human size robots in e-commerce warehouses to fetch items.

The patent is owned by Locus Robotics and granted recently.

How do the references to smartdust (milli-sized robots?) and military come in?

Good point, thanks. I jumped the gun based on the title and end of day fatigue.
