Claim 10:
11. A modular robot system having N (N is an integer greater than or equal to 2) cube-type unit robots, each of the N cube-type unit robots comprising:
a housing in the shape of a regular hexahedron;
a step motor installed in the housing; and
a controller installed in the housing to control the step motor,
wherein the housing includes:
a pair of mounting grooves each formed on opposing surfaces thereof to mount a rotary body rotating by a rotary shaft of the step motor thereon;
connection grooves with the same shape as each other formed on five surfaces thereof, so that the cube-type unit robot is connectable to another cube-type unit robot through connectors mounted on the connection grooves;
identification marks with different shapes from one another on all surfaces except any one surface of the six surfaces thereof; and
a central control terminal for applying the different identification numbers to the N cube-type unit robots, the controller performing a step motor control sequence corresponding to the identification number received among N step motor control sequences (which correspond to N identification numbers transmitted to the N cube-type unit robots) in advance defined,
wherein the central control terminal transmits the descriptors of the step motor control sequences corresponding to the identification numbers of the N cube-type unit robots to the N cube-type unit robots, and the controller performs the step motor control sequence on the basis of the descriptor of the step motor control sequence transmitted to the cube-type unit robot.
