Minimum Robot Control Sub-Unit: Modular, Scalable, and Reconfigurable
Project Description
The existing robot control relies on internal wired connections, which severely limit engineering design due to wiring constraints and result in low scalability. We are exploring a wireless modular solution to develop a new minimal control Sub-Unit for robots, enabling the system to significantly enhance scalability and reconfigurability while maintaining control performance. This approach provides a unified solution pathway for multi-actuator and multi-modal robotic applications.
