From those great folks at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne. I think this is the second thing I've found of interest from them.
"This project intends to design and control modular robots, called Roombots, to be used as building blocks for furniture that moves, self-assembles, self-reconfigures, and self-repairs."
How cool is that? I may have to start looking at their site routinely.

Well it is certainly more practical than the bow and arrow robot recently designed!!
Bow and arrow robot? Now, that's one (of many) I hadn't heard of. Automatic target acquisition,laser rangefinding, windage correction,rapid-fire reload (aka "endless quiver") all standard, of course?
