Anatomy-based organization of morphology and control in self-reconfigurable modular robots
In this paper we address the challenge of realizing full-body behaviors in scalable modular robots. We present an experimental study of a biologically inspired approach to organize...

Developments in Snake Robot Modeling and Locomotion
— Snake robots may one day play a crucial role in search and rescue operations and fire-fighting where it may either be too narrow or to dangerous for personnel to operate. Pro...

Using Modular Self-Reconfiguring Robots for Locomotion
: 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...
