From MoleMOD to MoleSTRING Design of self-assembly structures actuated by shareable soft robots

Article:

This paper proposes a self-assembling system for architectural application. It is areaction to current building crisis and high energy consumption by buildingindustry. This Unique system is based on a reconfiguration of passive elements bylow-cost soft robots able to move inside as well as configure them into 2D/3Dstructures similar to recent Modular robots. A goal is to significantly reduce thehigh price and complexity of state of the art modular robots by minimization ofmechatronic parts and using soft materials. The concept focuses on life-cyclemanagement when one system can achieve assembly, reconfiguration, anddisassembly with a minimum of waste. The paper compares three differentversions of a self-assembly system called MoleMOD: MoleCUBE, MoleCHAIN,and MoleSTRING.
