IEEE Intelligent Systems, 1998
At the Dartmouth Robotics Laboratory, we have a vision of the future: a modular robot that can assume a snake shape to traverse a tunnel, reconfigure upon exiting as a six-legged robot to traverse rough terrain, and change shape and gait to climb stairs and enter a building.

Reconfigurable adaptable micro-robot
IEEE SMC'99 Conference Proceedings. 1999 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (Cat. No.99CH37028), 2003The research on micro-robots with distributed intelligence, which are capable of reconfiguring themselves to adapt to various defense and civilian tasks, is relatively new. A team of interdisciplinary faculty from the College of Engineering at Michigan State University has taken this challenge and are designing micro-robots that incorporate learning ...

In this paper, the authors present hexagonal and parallelepipedic modules used for reconfigurable mobile robots. These modules are equipped with types of wheels like the classic and omnidirectional type. By combining these modules the authors achieve multiple types of constructive solutions of wheeled mobile robots.

Programming reconfigurable modular robots
Proceedings of 2012 IEEE/ASME 8th IEEE/ASME International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications, 2012Highly reconfigurable modular robots face unique control and programming challenges due to the large scale of the robotic systems, high level of reconfigurability of the systems, and high number of controllable degrees of freedom in the system. Modular robot systems such as iMobot must face these challenges in novel ways.

Mobile robot multisensor reconfiguration
Proceedings of the IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium 2000 (Cat. No.00TH8511), 2002To increase their autonomy, mobile robots are now supplied with many sensors. The aim of the multi-sensor reconfiguration task is to find the uncorrupted measurements and coordinate the sensors in order to supply reliable information at any time; in other words, the multisensor reconfiguration provides reliable information to the robot even if a ...

Design of reconfigurable robot
2018 ELEKTRO, 2018Reconfigurable robot is solution for unknown environment with various obstacles. Also energy consumption is better, when suitable locomotion mode is selected. Proposed service robot is able to locomotes via using of wheels or legs. The design of such structure has several advantage as better ability to cross the various types of terrain.

A reconfigurable robot platform
Robotics and Autonomous Systems, 1999Abstract In this paper, we present a reconfigurable robot platform based on OPEN-R, a standard for robot entertainment systems. Reconfigurability is attained by the use of the OPEN-R standard which enables a hot plug-in capability through a set of definitions for mechanical, electrical, and software interface protocols.

Reconfiguration of Autonomous Robotics
International Journal of Robotics Applications and Technologies, 2015Autonomous robotics systems (ARSs) consist of multiple heterogeneous objects and intelligent inferences that are expected to take appropriate actions even in unforeseen circumstances. Dynamic reconfiguration of ARSs is a key enabling technology and plays a major role in the future cyber-enabled battle field.

Self-reconfiguring Modular Robot
2008 IEEE International Conference on Automation, Quality and Testing, Robotics, 2008The paper presents the development of an autonomous modular robotic chain, with self-reconfiguring skills and able to perform creeping/walking motion. The module design is presented, as well its kinematics and control system. Some movement strategies are analyzed and, for the best one, the robot model is determined, in order to evaluate its worm-like ...

A reconfigurable spherical robot
2011 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2011This paper presents a reconfigurable spherical robot. The reconfigurable spherical robot can be reconfigured into a form of two interconnected hemispheres with three legs equipped with three omni-directional wheels. A stable reconfiguration control algorithm is constructed to change the robot from spherical shape to two halves of interconnected ...
