Arm-like robots and systems and methods that can move objects using multiple cooperating robots in accordance with various embodiments of the invention are described. In one embodiment, the arm-like robot includes a body having two ends, where the body comprises a plurality of actuated joints. In addition, the arm-like robot can include end-effectors attached at each end of the body, where each of the end-effectors is capable of both anchoring the arm-like robot to form a base and connecting to an object. The arm-like robot can also include at least one controller configured to control motion of the plurality of actuated joints and end-effectors so that one of the end-effectors can anchor the arm-like robot and form a base and the other end-effector can connect to a target object.
