Modular self-reconfigurable robots are composed of independent connected modules which can self-rearrange their connectivity using processing, communication and motion capabilities, in order to change the overall robot structure. In this paper, we consider rolling cylindrical arranged a two-dimensional vertical hexagonal lattice. We propose parallel, asynchronous fully decentralized distributed algorithm self-reconfigure from an initial configuration goal one. evaluate our on...
Programmable matter i.e. that can change its physical properties, more likely shape according to an internal or external action is a good example of cybermatics component. As it links cyberized real matter, straight cyber-physical conjugation. But, this interaction between virtual and worlds needs two elements. The first one find way represent the object using programmable second be able adapt changes. This article presents progresses made in these topics within Claytronics project.
The rise of the Internet Things raises many challenges among which is ability to efficiently simulate a real 3D environment with intelligent objects able sense and act. Furthermore, apparition micro-objects communicate forces such as simulator scale up in number simulated nodes. In this paper, we report progresses made design new kind named VisibleSim. VisibleSim mixes discrete-event core discrete-time functionnalities most efficient way so that simulations can numbers. Experiments show...
A modular robots is composed of many independent connected modules which are able to achieve common goals through communications. self-reconfigurable robot can move and reorganize its modify shape. In this paper, we consider a made from cubic (blocks) that slide along their faces. Sliding motions imply complex cooperations, for example, crossing an angle needs at least three synchronized blocks. Based on kind hardware, propose distributed rule-based algorithm plans moves the blocks reach...
We present a distributed framework for predicting whether planned reconfiguration step of modular robot will mechanically overload the structure, causing it to break or lose stability under its own weight. The algorithm is executed by itself and based on iterative solution mechanical equilibrium equations derived from simplified model robot. treats inter-modular connections as beams assumes no-sliding contact between modules ground. also provide procedure instability detection. verified in...
Localizing each module in a modular self-reconfigurable robot (MSR) is of paramount importance. In MSR, the communication graph directly mapped to real topology which makes localization problem easy solve. However, some types connectors can lose orientation modules, making intractable. this work, we propose build coordinate system for 3D lattice-based robots using multiagent system. We present DisCo algorithm, that uses one agent per only communicate with its connected neighbors and does not...
Programmable matter can be seen as a huge modular robot in which each module communicate to its connected neighbors and work all together achieve common goal, more likely changing the shape of whole robot. However, when number modules increases, memory used store target or computation time recreate this increases too. This article studies different approaches describe any object for robots. The use good method coding scene is critical aspect that reduce memory, transfer energy many...
