Toward a 2D Modular and Self-Reconfigurable Robot for Conveying Microparts
2012
2012 Second Workshop on Design, Control and Software Implementation for Distributed MEMS
This paper describes the design, prototyping and control of a 2D modular and self-reconfigurable robot for conveying microparts. The elementary block is designed to have a package dimension under 1cm 3 and will include the actuators, the electronics and the micro-controller. Electropermanent (EP) magnets are used for both the linkage and the traveling system to avoid any power consumption during the linkage. Some prototype blocks have been realized and show a well working of the motion and a
