Component-based software can be used to develop highly modular simulation environments supporting high reusability of software components. This paper examines a case study in whic...
Modular programming enjoys many well-known advantages: readability, maintainability, separate development and compilation. However, the composition of modular units (components) s...
— We propose a novel modular underwater robot which can self-reconfigure by stacking and unstacking its component modules. Applications for this robot include underwater monitor...

— We describe self-assembling robot arm systems composed of active modular robots and passive bars. We present a case study where the robotic module is the Shady3D robot and the ...
Abstract— There has been much research into the development of robotic controllers in educational, industrial and government research labs, but limited hardware budgets constrain...
