This video shows how convenient it is when one thing can transform itself from one thing to another automatically. (I would suggest you turn the volume down low, as the sound is quite strong in the beginning and there is no commentary) httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrVuJ7WXvQU http://www.bloomframe.com/ Imagine the same thing one every scale from the bumps in the [...]  In this TED Video you can see how squids use their enormous flexibility in their skin color and texture to do some amazing things. Can you imagine when all the the objects around you can do the same thing? It feels so amazing to work in an area with such immense potential for beauty.  I found this cool video from TEDx Berlin where Fabian Hemmert shows his work with cellphones and handheld devices that change their physical properties, like size and center of gravity, to show different internal states to the user. I also find his work on dynamic knobs really interesting. I think it is necessary to [...] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JG5GrAtalE&feature=channel_page”
This post defines three fundamental properties of Self-Reconfiguring Modular Robotics, SRCMR and then summarizes and elaborates on some consequences of them. Fundamental properties It is fundamental to SRCMR solutions to: Divide a task among many units that handle the task jointly This may seem simple and not that revolutionary, [...] Searching Scientific Commons is a great way to find papers, new and old, on any topic. When I searched for Self Reconfiguring Modular Robotics recently I got 323 hits! It is truly an amazing resource. My Self Reconfiguring Modular Robots search Scientific Commons Home [...]  The Gadget Show is a UK TV show for fun and interesting technical gadgets and in their latest episode they feature Modular Robots. In it the reporter, Ortis Deley, travels to the US and visits both Carnegie Mellon and University of Pennsylvania. First he visits Carnegie Mellon to see the latest progress in the research on robotic snakes, and [...]  New Video from USD Modular Robotics Research Lab showing the Odin system. [...] Paper, FE No;1:Reusable Electronics and Adaptable Communication as Implemented in the Odin Modular Robot By Ricardo Franco Mendoza Garcia, Andreas Lyder, David Johan Christensen and Kasper Stoy This paper was an interesting read. I think it shows how far the research on SRCMR has come, that we can now start to refine the design. I [...] Ulrik Pagh Schultz, Mirko Bordignon, Kasper Støy have made another interesting video, showing some new developments. One is that they have made the modules more robust, communication more fault tolerant, and the gripping mechanism more reliable. This is naturally very important, reliable and fault tolerant units and systems are absolutely necessary for SRCMR. The other [...] New videos from Neil Desmond, From Desmond Innovation. [...] |
