Autonomous robot calibration using vision technology
Yan Meng,Hanqi Zhuang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a vision-based self-calibration method for a serial robot manipulator, which only requires a ground-truth scale in the reference frame, is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphogenetic Robotics: An Emerging New Field in Developmental Robotics
Yaochu Jin,Yan Meng +1 more
TL;DR: The morphogenetic robotics, an emerging new field in developmental robotics, is an important part of developmental robotics in addition to epigenetic robotics as discussed by the authors, which is a class of methodologies in robotics for designing self-organizing, self-reconfigurable, and self-repairable single or multi-robot systems, using genetic and cellular mechanisms governing biological morphogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A cellular mechanism for multi-robot construction via evolutionary multi-objective optimization of a gene regulatory network.
TL;DR: This paper proposes a distributed GRN-based algorithm that can self-organize autonomously into different predefined shapes, and self-reorganize adaptively under dynamic environments for a multi-robot construction task.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Hierarchical Gene Regulatory Network for Adaptive Multirobot Pattern Formation
TL;DR: A hierarchical gene regulatory network (H-GRN) for adaptive multirobot pattern generation and formation in changing environments and is effective in forming the desired pattern in a changing environment is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autonomous Self-Reconfiguration of Modular Robots by Evolving a Hierarchical Mechanochemical Model
Yan Meng,Yuyang Zhang,Yaochu Jin +2 more
TL;DR: A two-layer hierarchical mechanochemical model for self-reconfiguration of modular robots in changing environments that can autonomously generate and form different patterns for modular robots to adapt to environmental changes is presented.
