Practical robot designs must strike a compromise between fabrication/manufacture cost and anticipated execution performance. Compared to parsimonious designs, more capable (and hence more expensive) robots generally achieve their ends with greater efficiency. This paper examines how the roboticist might explore the space of designs to gain an understanding of such trade-offs. We focus, specificall...
