In this letter, we propose a novel design of hybrid mobile robot with controllable stiffness and deformable shape. Compared to conventional agents, our system can switch between rigid compliant phases by solidifying or melting Field's metal in its structure and, thus, alter the shape through motion active components. soft state, robot's main body bend into circular arcs, which enables it conform surrounding curved objects. This variable geometry creates new modes cannot be described standard...
Collaboration among a group of robots with heterogeneous capabilities is an important research problem that enables to combine different robot functionalities, and thus, conducts complex tasks may be difficult achieve by single limited resources. In this paper, we propose new distributed task allocation framework based on the capability matching robots. The composed ontological dynamic knowledge graph model hardware control scheme optimize resource utilization for collaborative tasks. We...
