Abstract: A modular device includes a polyhedral building element having a first type connector and a number of second type connectors; and a main control module comprising a plurality of second type connectors. The first type connector and the second type connectors are disposed on side surfaces of the building element. One of the second type connectors of the main control module is used to magnetically connect with the first type connector of the building element so as to detachably connect the building element to the main control module. The first type connector includes a first detection circuit, and each second type connector includes a second detection circuit.

Abstract: A method for setting device identification includes: a main control circuit sending a first identification to a first device coupled to the main control circuit to set the first identification on the first device. The main control circuit sends a second identification to a second device coupled to the main control circuit to set the second identification on the second device. The first identification is different from the second identification when the kind of the first device is the same as that of the second device, and the first identification is the same as or different from the second identification when the kind of the first device is different from that of the second device. A main control circuit and a robot for performing the setting method are also provided.

Abstract: A building element for a modular device includes a male connector comprising M first magnets, a first ground terminal, a first detection terminal, a first power terminal, and a first signal terminal; and a female connector comprising M second magnets that are magnetically attractable to the first magnets, N second ground terminals, O second detection terminals, P second power terminals, and a second signal terminal. When the male connector of one building element is mechanically connected to the female connector of another building element, the first ground terminal, the first detection terminal, the first power terminal and the first signal terminal of the male connector of the one of two building elements respectively come into contact with one of the second ground terminals, one of the second detection terminals, one of the second power terminals, and the second signal terminal of the other one of the two building elements.
