Abstract
We present a novel modular robotic system that has the capability of both reconfiguration and robotic motion. A simulator has been developed to graphically design the system configuration, the reconfiguration process and motion of a cluster of the modules. Examples of the processes programmed by a human operator and generated automatically are presented
