Soft Adaptive Mechanical Metamaterials
Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021 Soft materials are inherently flexible and make suitable candidates for soft robots intended for specific tasks that would otherwise not be achievable (e.g., smart grips capable of picking up objects without prior knowledge of their stiffness). Moreover,

Dynamically Reconfigurable Robotic System
Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics, 1994 This paper deals with experimental aspects of a practical realization method for the cellular robotic system (CEBOT). CEBOT is a dynamically reconfigurable robotic systems which can reconfigure robots in an optimal structure, depending on working purposes and environments This is one of the autonomous distributed, cooperative systems, which are capable

A characterization of the reconfiguration space of self-reconfiguring robotic systems [PDF]
Robotica, 2011 SUMMARYMotion planning for self-reconfiguring robots can be made efficient by exploiting potential reductions to suitably large subspaces. However, there are no general techniques for identifying suitable restrictions that have a positive effect on planning efficiency.
