Realistic Reconfiguration of Crystalline (and Telecube) Robots [PDF]
, 2009 In this paper we propose novel algorithms for reconfiguring modular robots that are composed of n atoms. Each atom has the shape of a unit cube and can expand/contract each face by half a unit, as well as attach to or detach from faces of neighboring atoms. For universal reconfiguration, atoms must be arranged in 2 x 2 x 2 modules.
