Design and implementation of HexBot: A modular self-reconfigurable robotic system

▶ The design and implementation of a modular self-reconfigurable robotic system is addressed. ▶ A universal module that meets the primary requirements criteria such as homogeneity, cost-effectiveness, and fast actuation. ▶ A multilayer approach is explained in which each layer is dedicated to perform a specific task. ▶ It can be modified independently to provide openness, flexibility, and ease of modification.
