Design of a novel snake-like robotic colonoscope
2009 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), 2009The colonoscope is an important surgical tool to diagnose various colon diseases. However, the conventional colonoscope usually causes the patient a great deal of discomfort and pain. In order to develop a colonoscope for less discomfort of the patient and less demanding operation techniques of the doctor, a novel snake-like robotic colonoscope is ...

Motion control scheme for a snake-like robot
Proceedings 1999 IEEE International Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Robotics and Automation. CIRA'99 (Cat. No.99EX375), 2003We present a new control scheme for a snake-like robot. This scheme is very close to the scheme which real snakes use to control their movement. After presenting some observations gained from real snakes we describe our robot GMD-SNAKE2, a robot for inspection tasks in areas difficult to access by humans.

Structure and Analysis of a Snake-like Robot
2007A snake is an extremely capable organism that can conquer harsh terrains like rock and sand with apparent ease. The present work highlights the design, development and testing of a snake-like robot prototype. So called ‘SnakeBOT’, is a modular, wheeled snake-like robot.

Construction and operation of a snake-like robot
Proceedings IEEE International Joint Symposia on Intelligence and Systems, 2002Our robot, called the GMD-Snake, uses its body instead of wheels, legs, or arms for locomotion as well as for handling items. It may be used for inspection and manipulation in areas where motion is restricted. We describe the hardware and software of the GMD-Snake and some locomotion experiments.

Development of a snake-like robot:
2008This paper presents the development of a robot that mimics the movement of a live snake. A prototype robot comprising six links was constructed. Torque actuators between the links modify the robot's shape. Anisotropic friction between the links and the ground generates the force that propels the robot.

Control of a creeping snake-like robot
7th International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control. Proceedings (Cat. No.02TH8623), 2003The mechanics of an autonomous snake-like robot comprised of a chain of discrete links is formulated. Creeping caused by a serpentine winding of a chain is considered. Winding is generated by internal bending moment between the links. The distribution of moment resembles a wave that propagates with increasing amplitude from the head to the tail ...

Design and Simulation of a Snake like Robot
2018This paper present a novel design and a kinematic analysis of a variable neutral-line manipulator. Variable stiffness, as well as a high flexibility are the most wanted characteristics for snake like robots. In the last few years in modern medicine, Minimally Invasive Surgery played an important role.
