Hackaday Modular Robots

A robot to explore the unknown and automate tomorrow's tasks and the ones after them needs to be extremely versatile. Ideally, it was capable of being any size, any shape, and any functionality, shapeless like water, flexible and smart. For his Hackaday Prize entry, Alberto is building such a modular, self-reconfiguring robot Dtto.

2021 Hackaday Prize Challenge 4 Redefine Robots the generation of essential training data and to give an intuitive understanding of how safely and efficiently the robot is performing. With a modular design it is relatively straight-forward to create a robot that can perform a task like a human only where needed greatly increasing the

quotYou must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Become like water my friend.quot Bruce Lee The Dtto Robot is a modular transformable robot designed to be versatile, flexible and self-reconfigurable. The idea of modular robots is that

This project aims to build an affordable modular robot platform using open technology. Features - modular T-slot frame - differential drive using two brushless DC hub motors - driven by two open source speed controllers VESC - uses Field Oriented Control mode to have near silent operation - can carry a real load 100KG - modular power supply built around a power distribution board with 3

If the idea of self-assembling modular robots sounds familiar, you're right. The Dtto won the Grand Prize in the 2016 Hackaday Prize, and it's a beast of a project. It's an ouroboros of a

Other applications for modular robots are in situations where weight is a major concern, and where the multi-use functions would go a long way, such as in space. There are many other applications
