A self-reconfigurable camera array
ACM SIGGRAPH 2004 Sketches on - SIGGRAPH '04, 2004This paper presents a self-reconfigurable camera array system that captures video sequences from an array of mobile cameras, renders novel views on the fly and reconfigures the camera positions to achieve better rendering quality. The system is composed of 48 cameras mounted on mobile platforms. The contribution of this paper is twofold.

Self-Reconfiguration Using Directed Growth
2008Self-reconfigurable robots are built from modules which are autonomously able to change the way they are connected, thus changing the overall shape of the robot. This process is difficult to control because it involves the distributed coordination of large numbers of identical modules connected in time-varying ways.

Stochastic self-reconfigurable cellular robotics
IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2004. Proceedings. ICRA '04. 2004, 2004Implementations of self-reconfigurable robotics rearrange modules through a planned, deterministic reconfiguration path. Reconfiguration is achieved using active module locomotion or manipulation. Here we propose a form of self-reconfigurable robotics based on passive, stochastic self-organization.

Efficient Metacomputation Using Self-Reconfiguration
2002Self-reconfiguration is a technique using which configured logic can quickly modify itself at runtime to suit application requirements. Although performance improvements using self-reconfiguration have been demonstrated, the technique itself has been only informally described.

Connectors for self-reconfiguring robots
IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 2002Connectors for self-reconfiguring robots are difficult to design because of the wide range of requirements. We describe the DRAGON connector, whose most distinctive features are its ability to self-align and its strength-to-weight ratio. It weighs 170 g, but holds over 70-kg load.

Self-reconfigurable Modular e-pucks
2012We present the design of a new structural extension for the e-puck mobile robot. The extension may be used to transform what is a swarm robotics platform into a self-reconfigurable modular robotic system. As a proof of concept, we present an algorithm for controlling the collective locomotion of a group of e-pucks that are equipped with the extension ...

Self-reconfigurable Logic Controller Architecture
2014Logic controller design and implementation by means of FPGA devices is a quite common solution including partial reconfiguration functionality. The possibility of the PR is provided by the decomposition of the logic controllers into functional logic blocks.
