Fractal Gene Regulatory Networks for Robust Locomotion Control of Modular Robots
Designing controllers for modular robots is difficult due to the distributed and dynamic nature of the robots. In this paper fractal gene regulatory networks are evolved to control...

Distributed Goal Recognition Algorithms for Modular Robots
Modular robots are systems composed of a number of independent units that can be reconfigured to fit the task at hand. When the modules are computationally independent, they for...

Distributed Control of the Center of Mass of a Modular Robot
— We present a distributed controller for the center of mass of a modular robot. This is useful for locomotion of a modular robot over uneven and unknown terrain. By controlling ...

Wheeled locomotion for payload carrying with modular robot
— Carrying heavy payloads is a challenging task for the modular robot, because its composing modules are relatively tiny and less strong compared with conventional robots. To acc...
