Project logo.
The drops facing in the different directions illustrate reduced support free overhang limits and the trapezoid interdigitation illustrated self and absence of friction fits as two core design principles.
The droplet shape and green color is also in reference to the RepRap logo that uses the drop shape upright to hint on the 45° overhang limit applied on a horizontal hole when one designes for no supports to remove.

See:

Here intentionally plural despite the here on this wiki mostly adopted Wikipedia convention of sticking to singular.
This is on purpose as this is specifically about a whole class of robotic systems rather than just one single design.
It's more about the base principles rather than the concrete design details.
Still will be good to have at least one reference design in existence.
(Overambitious) work in progress.

Way less ambitious in terms of a reference design and thus more realistic to finish by one persons efforts:
The sub problem of a frame system. Again it's more about the principles than the concrete design details.
