This paper presents micro self-reconfigurable modular robotic systems using shape memory alloy (SMA). The system is designed so that various shapes can be autonomously formed by a ...
This paper addresses the issue of developing a motion planning algorithm for a general class of modular mobile robots. A modular mobile robot is essentially a reconfigurable robo...
— We describe algorithms to build self-assembling robot systems composed of active modular robots and passive bars. The distributed algorithms are based on locally optimal matchi...
: We discuss the applications of modular self-reconfigurable robots to navigation. We show that greedy algorithms are complete for motion planning over a class of modular reconfigu...
