One variation of a reconfigurable robotic system includes: a base; an arm extending from the base, including a set of articulable axes, and terminating at a head interface board defining a set of interface pins; a component interconnect arranged within the base, including a set of interconnect pins electrically coupled to the set of interface pins, and including a set of logic pins; a control card configured to transiently engage the component interconnect and including: a set of interconnect pads configured to contact the set of interconnect pins, a set of logic pads configured to contact the set of logic pins, and a control circuit interposed between the set of interconnect pads and the set of logic pads and including a set of independently selectable function circuits between each interconnect pad in a subset of the set of interconnect pads and corresponding logic pads in the set of logic pads.
