Robots on the factory floor almost know what's coming. Conned by programming and geometry, their world is just an assembly line. But for robots that operate doors, away from civilization, mission and geography are unpredictable. Here, robots with the ability to change their shape could adapt to a terrain that varies constantly. Metamorphic robots are designed so that they can change their external shape without human intervention. A general way to achieve such functionality is to construct a robot composed of multiple identical unit modules. If the modules are designed so that they can be mounted on rigid structures, and so that the individual units within such structures can be relocated into and around the structure, then self-configuration is possible.
These systems claim to have many desirable properties including versatility, robustness and low cost. Each module has its own computer, a rich set of sensors, actuators and communication networks. However, the practical application outside the research has not yet been seen. A pending issue for these systems is the increasing complexity of effective scheduling of a large distributed system, with hundreds or even thousands of nodes in shifting configurations. PolyBot has been developed as a third generation at the Palo Alto Xerox Research Center. Robot Conro built at the Institute of Information Sciences at the University of Southern California are examples of metamorphic robots.
