The condensation of aryl boronic acids with 2,3-dihydroxypyridine gives boronates, which self-assemble to form tetrameric macrocycles as evidenced by X-ray crystallographic analyses. ...
This paper addresses the design of control policies for groups of up to 16 simple autonomous mobile robots (called s-bots) for the cooperative transport of heavy objects of different shapes and sizes. The s-bots are capable of establishing physical connect ...
The present invention relates to a method for the manufacture of a peptidic folding precursor (Switch-Peptide) stable and soluble at physiological conditions, derived from a peptide having a potential for self-assembling and fibrillogenesis. Another object ...
Up to now, only a few collective or modular robot systems have proven capable of letting separate and autonomous units, or groups of units, self-assemble. In each case, ad hoc control algorithms have been developed. The aim of this paper is to show that a ...
The multicellular structure of biological organisms and the interpretation in each of their cells of a chemical program (the DNA string or genome) is the source of inspiration for the Embryonics (embryonic electronics) project, whose final objective is the ...
This article illustrates the methods and results of two sets of experiments in which a group of mobile robots, called s-bots, are required to physically connect to each other, that is, to self-assemble, to cope with environmental conditions that prevent th ...
We present a new type of robot concept called swarm-bot, based on cooperative and swarm intelligence, that was developed within an interdisciplinary project sponsored by the Future and Emerging Technologies of the European Commission. A swarm-bot is an ass ...
The invention discloses a method for the manuf. of a peptidic folding precursor (switch-peptide) stable and sol. at physiol. conditions, derived from a peptide having a potential for self-assembling and fibrillogenesis. Another object of the invention is t ...
In this paper, we discuss the self-assembling capabilities of the swarm-bot, a distributed robotics concept that lies at the intersection between collective and self-reconfigurable robotics. A swarm-bot comprises autonomous mobile robots called s-bots. S-b ...
