Abstract
The research on micro-robots with distributed intelligence, which are capable of reconfiguring themselves to adapt to various defense and civilian tasks, is relatively new. A team of interdisciplinary faculty from the College of Engineering at Michigan State University has taken this challenge and are designing micro-robots that incorporate learning, control and sensing. This paper presents the goals, and directions of this research along with the details of a preliminary design of one of the robots
