Abstract

A modular reconfigurable tracked micro-robot is proposed. Each single micro-module can run separately, and several micro-modules can be reconfigured into a chain-shaped robot or a loop-shaped robot. The robot is compact, small and light. A hierarchical control architecture is adopted, which comprises of a microprocessor level and a PC level and communicates through blue-tooth between two levels. Experiments verify that the chain-shaped robot has a strong obstacle-climbing capability, and can climb stairs; and that speed and adaptability of the loop-shaped robot are good.
