Abstract :
The metamorphic robotic systems are a new and rather perspective sphere of robotics because of their different and useful applications. An implementation of intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFS) in multiagent systems (MAS) is chosen for presenting a useful control techniques of metamorphic robots. They could be considered as a collection of identical modules and each unit has the ability to connect, disconnect and climb over its near neighbours (modules). So changing the overall shape of a robot is possible to be applied in different task decisions. The leading scope of this issue is to present a method of IFS application in MAS for solving chain locomotion and ameboid movement tasks.
