Generic simulation platforms such as player/stage are an essential tool in mobile robotics, but until now no similar platforms have been available for the field of self-reconfigurable robots. We here present a generic simulation platform for modular, self-reconfigurable robots: the unified simulator for self-reconfigurable robots (USSR).

Self-reconfigurable robot vision pipeline for safer adaptation to varying pavements width and surface conditions. [PDF]
This work presents the vision pipeline for our in-house developed autonomous reconfigurable pavement sweeping robot named Panthera. As the goal of Panthera is to be an autonomous self-reconfigurable robot, it has to understand the type of pavement it is ...

Roles and Self-Reconfigurable Robots [PDF]
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.
