Conventional curved surface robot has a rectangular boundary, and kinematics theory has been constructed with the same premise. The authors have constructed the kinematics for the curved surface robot whose boundary does not depend on a roughly rectangular shape, but a robot to which the kinematics can be applied has not been realized. In this paper, we propose a new robot that does not actively control the curved surface shape and controls the shape of the boundary, thereby passively realizing a surface with the smallest area according to the boundary shape.
