How to control a nanobot swarm

+0
−0

Say you somehow invented 50 thousand nanobots that are the size of medium sized bottle caps. Each are capable of hovering for a limited amount of time but do recharge with both solar energy and plug ins.

Now say you you want to control them and make them act like a single entity, to the point in which you can make a hand with them and make it grab things.

what method or how can a human be able to control over 50 thousand nanobots to perform like a single object, and is such an idea feasible?

Also, their is no magic in use.
