Programming reconfigurable modular robots

Proceedings of 2012 IEEE/ASME 8th IEEE/ASME International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications, 2012
Highly 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), 2002
To 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, 2018
Reconfigurable 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, 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.

Self-reconfiguring Modular Robot

2008 IEEE International Conference on Automation, Quality and Testing, Robotics, 2008
The 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, 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 ...

Bio-inspired Reconfigurable Robot

Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering, 2017
This paper deals with the conceptual design of a bio-inspired reconfigurable robot, capable of transforming its gait from an erect to the sprawling configuration, depending on the terrain to move with maximum stability. Taking inspiration from biological systems, various studies were carried out on numerous link and joint arrangements in order to ...

Reconfiguring Human-Robot Relations

ROMAN 2006 - The 15th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, 2006
This paper explores cultural imaginaries in projects dedicated to the design of human-like machines. Working with discussions of mimesis as developed by anthropologists Michael Taussig, M (1993) and Gell, A (1998), the author looks at some exemplary realizations of 'socially intelligent' robots, proposing an approach aimed at demystifying and ...
