Beyond self-assembly: Mergeable nervous systems, spatially targeted communication, and supervised morphogenesis for autonomous robots

The study of self-assembling robots represents a promising strand within the emerging field of modular robots research. Self-assembling robots have the potential to autonomously adapt their bodies to new tasks and changing environments long after their initial deployment by forming new or reorganizi...
