How do we get in sync with each other? Through various sorts of feedback. Swarms of mobile pulse-coupled agents (such as robots) exhibit distinct synchronization regimes, which can be controlled by tuning the velocity of the agents, or their interaction rules, as the authors show. Between slow and fast speeds lurks an intermediate zone where lock-step behavior can be impeded---possibly on purpose, depending on an application's goals.
