Self-reconfigurable robots

IEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine, 2007
In this article, the concept of a cellular robot that is capable of reconfiguring itself is reviewed. This "self-reconfigurable (SR) robot" exemplifies a new trend in robotics, indeed, we can now build various kinds of SR robots with off-the-shelf technologies of processors, actuators, and sensors.

A reconfigurable spherical robot

2011 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2011
This 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 ...

A reconfigurable robot platform

Robotics and Autonomous Systems, 1999
Abstract 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, 2015
Autonomous 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.

Docking in self-reconfigurable robots

Proceedings 2001 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems. Expanding the Societal Role of Robotics in the the Next Millennium (Cat. No.01CH37180), 2002
Docking is a crucial action for self-reconfigurable robots because it supports almost all practical advantages of such robots. In addition to the classic docking challenges found in other applications, such as reliable dock/latch mechanics, effective guiding systems, and intelligent control protocols, docking in self-reconfigurable robots is also ...

PolyBot: a modular reconfigurable robot

Proceedings 2000 ICRA. Millennium Conference. IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation. Symposia Proceedings (Cat. No.00CH37065), 2002
Modular, self-reconfigurable robots show the promise of great versatility, robustness and low cost. The paper presents examples and issues in realizing those promises. PolyBot is a modular, self-reconfigurable system that is being used to explore the hardware reality of a robot with a large number of interchangeable modules.

A cuboctahedron module for a reconfigurable robot

2010 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2010
We present a concept for a modular robot with a quasi-regular polyhedron based on a cuboctahedron element. Lattice-type modular robots can adapt their morphology by reconfiguring to various shapes. While regular polyhedrons provide the bases of many promising 3D lattice elements, few modular robots have shapes with more than six regular faces.
