  • Publication number: 20180353871
    Abstract: A module system and to a method for exchanging information and/or power between modules of a module system and to a corresponding computer program product. Thus a particularly simple and verifiable linking of individual modules of a modular system can be carried out, wherein the linking is possible at any time and in particular without structural changes to positions or mechanical couplings of the modules combined with one another.

  • Publication number: 20150251104
    Abstract: The invention relates to a connecting structure between building blocks and to a building block. The connecting structure according to the invention has a relatively simple structural design so as to be easily producible and releasable. Furthermore the connecting structure allows a quick modification of the orientation of the building blocks relative to one another. In the process an energy and/or information transmission is allowed between the building blocks at the same time.

  • Patent number: 8851953
    Abstract: The invention relates to a building block system having modules that can be plugged together, wherein electronic and mechanical components required for motion and control are provided in the modules. The object of the invention is to provide a building block system, which facilitates constructing mobile models from simple building blocks. According to the invention, the object is achieved by a building block system having movable modules, wherein the building block system includes at least one energy module, at least one control module having a micro-controller, at least one movement module having an integrated servo motor, and a plurality of connection modules that can be randomly connected with each other, wherein the modules are connectable through plug connections enabling current flow between adjacent modules.
