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...

— We describe a novel shape formation algorithm for ensembles of 2-dimensional lattice-arrayed modular robots, based on the manipulation of regularly shaped voids within the latt...

Abstract. We present a GUI-based C++ toolbox that allows for building distributed, multi-modal context recognition systems by plugging together reusable, parameterizable components...

— We describe algorithms to build self-assembling robot systems composed of active modular robots and passive bars. The distributed algorithms are based on locally optimal matchi...
Abstract— Biological systems achieve amazing adaptive behavior with local agents performing simple sensing and actions. Modular robots with similar properties can potentially ach...
