Learning Modular Policies for Robotics [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2014 A promising idea for scaling robot learning to more complex tasks is to use elemental behaviors as building blocks to compose more complex behaviour. Ideally, such building blocks are used in combination with a learning algorithmthat is able to learn to ...

Modular Fluidic Propulsion Robots [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Robotics, 2021 We propose a novel concept for modular robots, termed modular fluidic propulsion (MFP), which promises to combine effective propulsion, a large reconfiguration space, and a scalable design. MFP robots are modular fluid networks. To propel, they route fluid through themselves. In this article, both hydraulic and pneumatic implementations are considered.

Designing modular robotic playware [PDF]
RO-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.
