摘要: At the Dartmouth Robotics Laboratory, we have a vision of future: modular robot that can assume snake shape to traverse tunnel, reconfigure upon exiting as six-legged rough terrain, and change gait climb stairs enter building. The key such versatility is self-reconfiguration-a new way thinking about robots offers rich class questions design, control, use. To help realize our vision, designed Molecule, small simple robotic module, capable self-reconfiguration in three dimensions.
