摘要：

We discuss a robotic module called a Molecule. Molecules can be the basis far building self-reconfiguring robots. They support multiple modalities of locomotion and manipulation. We describe the design, functionality, and control of the Molecule. We show how a set of Molecules can aggregate as active three-dimensional structures that can move and change shape. Finally, we discuss global motion algorithms for Molecular structures. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
