Roles and Self-Reconfigurable Robots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A self-reconfigurable robot is a robotic device that can change its own shape.Self-reconfigurable robots are commonly built from multiple identical modules that canmanipulate each other to change the shape of the robot. The robot can also perform taskssuch as locomotion without changing shape.

The self-reconfiguring robotic molecule [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings. 1998 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (Cat. No.98CH36146), 2002
We discuss a robotic module called a molecule. Molecules can be the basis for building self-reconfiguring robots. They support multiple modalities of locomotion and manipulation. We describe the design, functionality, and control of the molecule. We show how a set of molecules can aggregate as active three-dimensional structures that can move and ...
