This project explores self-assembling systems using macroscopic building blocks that interact in a dynamic medium. It aims to create life-like organisms that evolve through local interactions, providing insights into evolutionary processes and potential applications in robotics.
It has been observed that discrete and autonomous entities, from molecular to planetary scale, bind to each other, and thereby, organize into patterns and structures without being directed externally.
The underlying process, termed self-assembly, encouraged researchers from many disciplines to study the design of modular and collective robot systems in which new entities arise autonomously by self-assembling.
However, the capabilities of such systems are vastly unexplored, mainly due to shortcom…
