Roombots-Mechanical Design of Self-Reconfiguring Modular Robots for Adaptive Furniture

Auke Ijspeert, Pierre Dillenbourg, Aude Billard

We aim at merging technologies from information technology, roomware, and robotics in order to design adaptive and intelligent furniture. This paper presents design principles for our modular robots, called Roombots, as future building blocks for furniture ...

An active connection mechanism for modular self-reconfigurable robotic systems based on physical latching

Auke Ijspeert, Masoud Asadpour, Yvan Bourquin

This article presents a robust and heavy duty physical latching connection mechanism, which can be actuated with DC motors to actively connect and disconnect modular robot units. The special requirements include a lightweight and simple construction provid ...

Autonomous Self-assembly in Swarm-Bots

Francesco Mondada, Michael Bonani, Roderich Gross

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 ...

SWARM-BOT: From Concept to Implementation

Dario Floreano, Francesco Mondada, André Guignard, Michael Bonani, Michel Lauria

This paper presents a new robotic concept, called SWARM-BOT, based on a swarm of autonomous mobile robots with self-assembling capabilities. SWARM-BOT takes advantage from collective and distributed approaches to ensure robustness to failures and to hard e ...
