M-TRAN: self-reconfigurable modular robotic system
TL;DR: A novel robotic system called modular transformer (M-TRAN) is proposed, a distributed, self-reconfigurable system composed of homogeneous robotic modules that is able to metamorphose into robotic configurations such as a legged machine and generate coordinated walking motion without any human intervention.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A 3-D self-reconfigurable structure
TL;DR: A prototype unit is designed and built to examine the feasibility of the 3-D self-reconfigurable concept, the design of the unit, method of reconfiguration, hardware implementation, and results of preliminary experiments are shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Automatic locomotion design and experiments for a Modular robotic system
TL;DR: This study proposes a unified framework for automatically designing an efficient locomotion controller suitable for any module configuration and verified the method by software simulations and hardware experiments, in which the modular robotic system, named M-TRAN II, performed stable and effective locomotion in various configurations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrafast nonlinear optical loop mirror for demultiplexing 640 Gbit/s TDM signals
TL;DR: In this paper, a 640 Gbit/s TDM signal was successfully demultiplexed to 10 Gbps with a walk-off free, ultrafast, 450 m long nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM).
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembly and self-repair method for a distributed mechanical system
TL;DR: A distributed method for a group of identical units to metamorphose from an arbitrary configuration into a desired configuration through cooperation by the units is discussed, realized by identical software on each unit with local inter-unit communication.
