We introduce two autonomous chemical reaction-diffusion models that can emulate the behavior of specific cellular automata. One model conducts formation of a 3-color checker-board pattern using an abstract chemical reaction network. The other model is based on a DNA reaction-diffusion system that is capable of emulating a Turing-complete one-dimensional cellular automaton. These frameworks can be...
This paper proposes a collective construction method through interaction between simple robots and intelligent blocks that have a rule set and a communication function with neighboring blocks. In our method, the structure is formed by growing chain of blocks. The growth direction is determined by the rule set and a counter value passed between the blocks. The robots load or unload the block based...
This paper describes a methodology to construct a dynamic structure by the interaction between intelligent blocks and simple robots. The block is intelligent enough to have a rule set and a counter value, and communicates with next blocks based on the rule set and counter value. The structure is formed by growing the chain of the blocks. Its growth direction is determined by the rule set and the counter...
In this paper, author present a system which named Triple Furuta pendulum. This system has three pendulums which placed at direct drive motor. Author aim at a realizetion of a stabilization of a Triple Furuta pendulum. For the stabilizing control, author derived the equation of motion by the Eular-Lagrange method and a state equation. Author show structural evaluation based on the condition number...
Random motion of mixed different sized particles causes a segregation and larger particles come up to the top. This phenomenon is a basic characteristic of power system. Here we reports an object transport inspired by this effect, in which the group of robots and a handled object correspond to small particles and a large particle, respectively. Based on this effect, the passive object can be transported...
This paper reports an object transport using Brazil nut effect, in which the group of robots and a handled object correspond to small particles and a large particle, respectively. Based on this effect, the passive object can be transported to a given destination in spite that each robot does not know the location of the object being transported or the location of the destination. Homogeneous system...
This paper reports collective behaviors of multirobot system with simple dynamics and interactions. The model for collective motion is described by fundamental kinetics and the dynamics of the heading which each element has as a degree of freedom. Firstly, we shows the system based on this model realizes various types of behavior according to the set of parameters in the model, which resembles to...
