M-Blocks : three dimensional modular self-reconfigurable robots
… of the 3D M-Blocks modular robot system. Modular self-reconfigurable robots (MSRR) are robotic systems which contain many modules that can form and break connections with other modules, and move on a lattice of other modules in order to form different configurations. The 3D M-Blocks is a new …
