We demonstrate how simple local rules, inspired by social insects, produce complex
dynamic behaviors required for locomotion and navigation in modular self-reconfigurable
robots. We show how systems made up of many modules respond dynamically to their
environment, such as obstacles during navigation. We present control algorithms tested on
simulation experiments of TeleCube, a new modular robot developed at Xerox PARC.
