Development of a Modular Robotic System

 

Motivation

Deploying industrial robots for production means spending vast amounts of money, such that modular robot systems are more and more sought after. Using modular parts, it would possible to generate robot systems which are adaptable to many different tasks, therefore reducing costs. The disadvantage with traditional robots is that even for small production adjustments the whole application needs re-evaluation and re-calibration. With modular robot systems, we automatically evaluate and choose the optimal configuration of modules in case of task changes.

This is as well a research project and part of the project "proModular".
