LOCOMOTION WITH A UNIT MODULAR RECONFIGURABLE ROBOT
Polypod is a bi-unit modular robot. This means that the robot is built up of exactly two types of modules that are repeated many times. This repetition makes manufacturing easier and cheaper…
Distributed Self-reconfiguration of 3-D Homogeneous Modular Structure
DISTRIBUTED SELF-RECONFIGURATION OF 3-D HOMOGENEOUS MODULAR STRUCTURE
We have been studying on distributed mechanical systems, composed of many identical units. They use local communication to decide their behavior, and they can also reconfigure themselves dynamically….
