A modular robotic system using magnetic force effectors
— One of the primary impediments to building ensembles with many modular robots is the complexity and number of mechanical mechanisms used to construct the individual modules. As...

A Hierarchical Motion Planning Strategy for a Uniform Self-Reconfigurable Modular Robotic System
This paper describes a multi-layered hierarchical motion planning strategy for a class of self-reconfigurable modular robotic systems, I-Cubes. The approach is based on the synthe...

Stress-driven MEMS assembly + electrostatic forces = 1mm diameter robot
— As the size of the modules in a self-reconfiguring modular robotic system shrinks and the number of modules increases, the flexibility of the system as a whole increases. In ...
