Thermoelectric Nanorobot Swarm (2D Unrolled Pipeline) — Seebeck Energy Harvester

A swarm of autonomous thermoelectric nanorobots forages the unrolled surface of a hot pipeline — angle θ across, axial position x down — each one sensing the local temperature gradient and steering itself toward the steepest drop the way a distributed search algorithm would: part gradient ascent, part stochastic exploration. Wherever a bot straddles a real temperature difference it generates a Seebeck voltage and feeds real instantaneous power into a shared battery model, so the whole swarm behaves as a self-organizing energy-harvesting sensor network. Drag the main panel to pan around the pipe, tune the swarm size, exploration noise, load resistance and hotspot intensity, and watch the harvested power, average sensed ΔT, a live power-vs-time trace, and the matched-load power curve respond immediately.
