Fractal robot
Fractal robot is a new kind of robot made from motorised cubic bricks that move under computer control.they can be programmed to move and shuffle themselves to change shape to make objects in a few seconds due to their motorized internal mechanisms. Fractal robots requires tooling and software to perform useful work. They are just like children playing with lego kits to build houses.The technology involved is called Digital Matter Control and it is implemented here with machines called Fractal Robots. The machine can have additional electromechanical tools fitted so that a variety of things can be carried on top of T-shaped carrier girders including glass panels, rolled sheet material, tooling carousel, work parts and pipes. Work parts are shipped to the assembly point and then robot arms or custom tools built into fractal robots perform the final assembly operation.
Applications
Laying of pipes:
Joints and welding tools are carried inside cubes as fractal tools.The T-section can carry pipes which are then shuffled into the assembly point where further robots attach the pipe to a connector or to more pipes automatically.
Laying of cables:
Fractal robots with a pair of fingers can lay wires through complex contours and connect them up with special terminating tools.
This is a new emerging area in mechanical problem solving.Many previously intractable mechanical problems in robotics have now been solved with this new branch of robotics.
