The purpose of this research is to develop an automatic design method for hardware and software of machine. In this paper, the genetic algorithm is applied as the design method for shape and behavior of a virtual mobile modular robot. Mobile robots consist of the same parts, and the purpose of the design is to increase a moving distance. Designed mobile robots are simulated in a three-dimensional virtual physics space, and evaluated by moving distance. As a result, an appropriate shape and behavior for virtual robots is acquired.
