Design and Implementation of a Modular Self-reconfigurable Robot
This paper presents the design and implementation of a new modular self-reconfigurable robot. The single module has three joints and can perform rectilinear motion, lateral shift, lateral rolling, and rotation. A flexible pin-hole-based docking mechanism is designed for self-assembly. With the proposed infrared-sensor-based docking method, multiple modules can be self-assembled to form versatil...
متن کاملDesign of a Modular Self-Reconfigurable Robot
In this paper we examine the development of modular self-reconfigurable robots. A survey of existing modular robots is given. Some limitations of homogeneous designs and connection mechanisms are discussed. Therefore, we propose a heterogeneous self-reconfigurable robot with genderless, fail-safe connecting mechanisms. We initially design three basic types (joint, power and special units) of mo...
متن کاملSelf-Reconfigurable Modular Robot
We have proposed a self-reconfigurable robotic module, which has a very simple structure. The system is capable of not only building static structure but generating dynamic robotic motion. We also developed a simulator for motion planning. In this paper, we present details of the mechanical / electrical design of the developed module and its control system architecture. Experiments using ten mo...
متن کاملSelf-reconfigurable modular robot (M-TRAN) and its motion design
We have developed a modular robotic system (M-TRAN) which can change its configuration by itself. By using many DOFs of mechanism and self-reconfiguration capability, it can realize several types of motion, and can make various configurations. We have made two models of the system (M-TRAN I & II). In M-TRAN II, various improvements are integrated such as onboard multi-computers, reliable inter-...
متن کاملA Self-Reconfigurable Modular Robot: Reconfiguration Planning and Experiments
In this paper we address a reconfiguration planning method for locomotion of a homogeneous modular robotic system and we conduct an experiment to verify that the planned locomotion can be realized by hardware. Our recently developed module is self-reconfigurable. A group of the modules can thus generate various three-dimensional robotic structures and motions. Although the module itself is a si...
