+ In the last few decades, robot

research and development has


peeled off in a
number of different directions.
The goal,
''Robots are however,
autonomousis artificial
the same life:
farms that can perform useful work"
.
BUT, the paths to ge t t ing to this
poi nt are
diverse.
WHAT ARE FRACTAL
•ROBOTS ?
Fractal robot is a new kind of robot
made from motorised cubic bricks
that move under computer control.
These robots can
re- configure to
any
shape according
to the program
perfor ming
on the OS .

CONSTRUCTION
DETAILS
Robotic cubes are
assembled from
faceplates
bolted to a cubic frame.

The cubes are hollow


and allthe electronic
and mechanical

are assembled in it.

IMPLEMENTATIO
N OF
• COMPUTER
FRACTAL OS : CONTROL
" Converts fractally written codes into machine
commands for movement.
-- Internal design of the Fractal OS includes
ROM,RAM and Counters.
• FRACTAL BUS :
The Fractal OS feeds data into the Fractal BUS.

" Fractal bus permits hardware and software to


merge seamlessly into one unified data
structure.

REPAIR
APPLICATIONS

• Defence Techno

• Space
Explorations

• Earthquake App

CONCLUSIO
N
• It may take 4- 5 years for this
technology
to be introduced.
•Using fractal robots will help in
saving economy, time etc.
• It can be used for sensitive tasks.
• Raw materials are cheap.
•These all features promises to
revolutionize technology in away
that has never been witnessed
