Self-Reconfiguring Modular Robots Can Merge, Split and Heal While Retaining Full Sensorimotor Control

Researchers have developed modular robots that can become independent robotic entities by merging and splitting. This ability allows the robots to autonomously alter their shape to suit the task at hand. The system is also able to retain sensorimotor control during alteration and self heal by removing or repairing specific parts.
