In this article, a new solution for the convex hull problem has been presented. The convex hull is a widely known problem in computational geometry. As nature is a rich source of ideas in the field of algorithms, the solution has been inspired by nature. A tight elastic band is modeled using agents and also nails as points of the problem. By simulating an elastic band with nails in an environment, solving the convex hull problem will be possible. The algorithm runs in O(t) in which t is the time that an elastic band will get fixed.
