Analysis on Self-Morphing Process of Self-Reconfigurable Modular Robot

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2009
The self-reconfigurable modular robot consists of many identical modules. By connecting to/disconnecting from other modules, the whole structure of the robot can transform into arbitrary other configurations.

Designing modular robotic playware [PDF]

open access: yesRO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, 2009
In this paper, we explore the design of modular robotic objects that may enhance playful experiences. The approach builds upon the development of modular robotics to create a kind of playware, which is flexible in both set-up and activity building for the end-user to allow easy creation of games.
