Résumé:
This paper is aimed at designing a modular self-reconfigurable
robot having self-assembly capability. The base idea is to exploit
physical connections for solving tasks that are impossible for a
single robot. Some examples of modular robots are examined.
Limitations of homogeneous modules and of connection
mechanisms are discussed. The model of a colony of
heterogeneous modules with robust connecting mechanisms is
proposed. In this paper, three types of modules for the following
functions: gripper, climber, and joint units are presented. It is
shown that this approach provides good autonomy and good
flexibility.
