Using Modular Self-reconfiguring Robots for Locomotion - Kotay, Rus, Vona (Correct)
....modules and ways of composing them were proposed. In [21] Yim studies multiple modes of locomotion that are achieved physically by manually composing a few basic elements in di#erent ways. This work also presents extensive examples of locomotion and self reconfiguration in simulation. In [10, 23, 20, 11], Murata et al. consider a system of modules that can achieve planar motion by walking over one another. The reconfiguration motion is actuated by varying the polarity of electromagnets that are embedded in each module. More recently [12] this group developed a twelve DOF module capable of ....

....to shrink and expand by a factor of two and to make or break connections. This actuation scheme allows an individual module to relocate to arbitrary positions on the surface of a structure of modules in constant time. Previous systems necessitate linear time in the number of modules on the surface [24, 14, 8, 9], because motion from point A to point B requires traversing a path between A and B on the surface of the structure. The expansion compression actuation of the Crystalline Atom allows a module to relocate from point A to point B by traveling through the volume of the structure. We discuss ....

....robots. Self reconfigurable robots are constructed from a set of autonomous and connectable modules. Although the physical realization of such robots is relatively new, much literature exists for their control in simulation or in robots that have very limited reconfiguration ability. [1 9] are examples of the related works. This paper describes a method for distributed software control of such robots, based on the biological concept of hormones. 2 CONRO System Overview The CONRO self reconfigurable robots are made of a set of connectable modules. Each module is an autonomous unit ....
