StarBlocks: Soft Actuated Self-Connecting Blocks for Building Deformable Lattice Structures

RA-L 2023

In this paper, we present a soft modular block inspired by tensegrity structures that can form load-bearing structures through self-assembly. The block comprises a stellated compliant skeleton, shape memory alloy muscles, and permanent magnet connectors. We classify five deformation primitives for i
