Prof. Jens Krause is an expert on Swarm Intelligence. Observing large groups of fish and even experimenting with robofish, he has been able to predict movements of large groups of animals. These insights can also be used to predict human movements -- intelligence that can be extremely useful in emergency situations at mass manifestations
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
