Evolving modular soft robots without explicit inter-module communication using local self-attention [PDF]
Annual Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary Computation, 2022 Modularity in robotics holds great potential. In principle, modular robots can be disassembled and reassembled in different robots, and possibly perform new tasks.
