Modular Robotics That Can Make Themselves Into Anything
The greatest challenge of robotics is autonomy. Usually, this means cars that can drive themselves, a robotic vacuum that won’t drive down the stairs, or a rover on Mars that can drive on Mars. This project is nothing like that. Instead of building a robot with a single shape, this robot is made out of several modules that can self-assemble into different structures. It’s an organized fleet of robots, all helping each other, like an ant colony, or our future as Gray Goo.
If the idea of self-assembling modular robots sounds familiar, you’re right. The Dtto won the Grand Prize …read more
