Robots Made From Ice: An Analysis of Manufacturing Techniques
Devin Carroll,Mark Yim,Devin Carroll,Mark Yim
Modular robotic systems with self-repair or self-replication capabilities have been presented as a robust, low cost solution to extraterrestrial or Arctic exploration. This paper explores using ice as the sole structure element to build robots. The ice allows for increased flexibility in the system design, enabling the robotic structure to be designed and built post deployment, after tasks and ter...
