Abstract
We present a novel modular robotic system that has a capability of both reconfiguration and robotic motion. A simulator has been developed to graphically design the system configuration, the reconfiguration process and motion of a cluster of the modules. Some examples of processes programmed by a human operator and generated automatically are presented.Keywords
