===Bucket of stuff===

A third long-term vision for these systems has been called "bucket of stuff", which would be a container filled with modular robots that can accept user commands and adopt an appropriate form in order to complete household chores.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Feczko |first1=Jacek |last2=Manka |first2=Michal |last3=Krol |first3=Pawel |last4=Giergiel |first4=Mariusz |last5=Uhl |first5=Tadeusz |last6=Pietrzyk |first6=Andrzej |title=Review of the modular self reconfigurable robotic systems |journal=2015 10th International Workshop on Robot Motion and Control (RoMoCo) |date=July 2015 |pages=182–187 |doi=10.1109/RoMoCo.2015.7219733|isbn=978-1-4799-7043-8 }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |last1=Mackenzie |first1=Dana |last2=Manka |first2=Michal |last3=Krol |first3=Pawel |last4=Giergiel |first4=Mariusz |last5=Uhl |first5=Tadeusz |last6=Pietrzyk |first6=Andrzej |title=Shape Shifters Tread a Daunting Path Toward Reality |journal=Science |date=8 August 2003 |volume=301 |issue=5634 |pages=754–756 |doi=10.1126/science.301.5634.754|pmid=12907773 }}</ref>

'''[[Molecubes]] (2005)'''

This hybrid self-reconfiguring system was built by the [[Cornell]] Computational Synthesis Lab to physically demonstrate artificial kinematic self-reproduction. Each module is a 0.65&nbsp;kg cube with 100&nbsp;mm long edges and one rotational degree of freedom. The axis of rotation is aligned with the cube's longest diagonal. Physical self-reproduction of both a three- and a four-module robot was demonstrated.<ref name="Zykov Mytilinaios Adams Lipson 2005 pp. 163–164">{{cite journal | last1=Zykov | first1=Victor | last2=Mytilinaios | first2=Efstathios | last3=Adams | first3=Bryant | last4=Lipson | first4=Hod | title=Self-reproducing machines | journal=Nature | publisher=Springer Science and Business Media LLC | volume=435 | issue=7039 | year=2005 | issn=0028-0836 | doi=10.1038/435163a | pages=163–164| pmid=15889080 | s2cid=4362474 }}</ref> It was also shown that, disregarding the gravity constraints, an infinite number of self-reproducing chain meta-structures can be built from Molecubes.
