Reconfigurable Robotics Lab - EPFL | Mori3 - Module overview and shape change @ReconfigurableRoboticsLabEPFL | Uploaded June 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
The Mori3 is a robot capable of changing its own shape to adapt to new environments and unseen tasks. The Mori3 consists of autonomous pieces which can connect together to form large, complex, and moving systems.
This video shows one module changing its edge length, allowing for a connected system to modify their morphology without reconfiguration.
Each module contains motors which allow it to control a connected joint and drive on flat surfaces. Each edge has couplings, allowing for modules to automatically establish a physical and electrical connection with neighbors. They have onboard batteries, sensors, and wireless capabilities.
