Modular and Self-Scalable Origami Robot: A First Approach
Mathematics, 2021 This paper presents a proposal of a modular robot with origami structure. The proposal is based on a self-scalable and modular link made of soft parts. The kinematics of a single link and several links interconnected is studied and validated.

Linbots: Soft Modular Robots Utilizing Voice Coils [PDF]
Soft Robotics, 2019 Abstract Robots performing automated tasks in uncontrolled environments need to adapt to environmental changes. Through building large collectives of robots, this robust and adaptive behavior can emerge from simple individual rules. These collectives can also be reconfigured, allowing for adaption to new tasks.

Bio-inspired Tensegrity Soft Modular Robots [PDF]
, 2017 In this paper, we introduce a design principle to develop novel soft modular robots based on tensegrity structures and inspired by the cytoskeleton of living cells. We describe a novel strategy to realize tensegrity structures using planar manufacturing techniques, such as 3D printing.
