Modulo Cellulo: Modular Versatile Tangible Educational Robots
EPFL — CHILI Lab & RRL · DOI 10.1109/IROS47612.2022.9981983
Abstract
This article presents the novel modular version of the robotic platform Cellulo, a versatile handheld robot initially designed as an educational robot. The use of Cellulo in different contexts and applications over the years has highlighted the need for modularity, which adds versatility by increasing the spectrum of functionalities of the robot as well as its robustness. Modulo Cellulo consists of three modules — a main module, a battery module, and an interaction module. The paper describes the platform, the module designs, the mechanical and electrical inter-connectivity between them, the new adaptive controller, and the application development framework.
