AmphiBot I: an amphibious snake-like robot [PDF]

open access: yesRobotics and Autonomous Systems, 2005
This article presents a project that aims at constructing a biologically inspired amphibious snake-like robot. The robot is designed to be capable of anguilliform swimming like sea-snakes and lampreys in water and lateral undulatory locomotion like a snake on ground.

Snake-like robots [Tutorial]

open access: yesIEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine, 2009
We have introduced the biomechanical research on snakes and developmental research on snake-like robots that we have been working on. We could not introduce everything we developed. There were also a smaller snake-like active endoscope; a large-sized snake-like inspection robot for nuclear reactor related facility, Koryu, 1 m in height, 3.5 m in length,

Trajectory tracking control law of multi-joint snake-like robot based on improved snake-like curve in flow field

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2019
Aiming at the problem of trajectory tracking between joints of the multi-joint snake-like robot in the flow fields, a trajectory tracking control law proposed based on the improved snake-like curve of a multi-joint snake-like robot to avoid obstacles in ...

A Study on Sinus-Lifting Motion of a Snake Robot With Sequential Optimization of a Hybrid System [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, 2014
In this paper, we consider “sinus-lifting motion” of a living snake, in which a snake lifts up some parts of its body from the ground, and switches the lifted parts dynamically.

Generalized Singularity Analysis of Snake-Like Robot [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
The purpose of this paper is to elucidate a generalized singularity analysis of a snake-like robot. The generalized analysis is denoted as analysis of singularity of a model which defines all designable parameters such as the link length and/or the position of the passive wheel as arbitrary variables. The denotation is a key point for a novelty of this

Gait, Stability and Movement of Snake-Like Robots [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2012
This paper provides theoretical analysis of some key features of snake-like robot locomotion. Inspired by the moving mechanism of animals, the snake robot built with simple modules is numerically controlled. A most common method for its locomotion is to apply a central pattern generator to efficiently generate the control signals of gait and movement.

Long-range snake-like robot powered by pneumatic McKibben muscles

open access: yesArchive of Mechanical Engineering, 2023
Contemporary research on mobile robotics aims at designing robots that will be able to traverse an extremely varied environment. One of the most universal modes of locomotion is the serpentine movement. A majority of modern snake-like robots use electric

Research on obstacle climbing gait of snake‐like robot on high‐voltage cables cables

open access: yesElectronics Letters, 2021
Aiming at the gait control problem of a snake‐like inspection robot performing variable‐diameter spiral motion on high‐voltage cables, a gait generation method is proposed here, the snake‐like robot can adapt to the change in diameter when it is winding ...

Towards a Discrete Snake-Like Robot Based on SMA-Actuated Tristable Modules for Follow the Leader Control Strategy

open access: yesIEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2023
Snake-like robots applications include surveillance and exploration of confined environments where human presence is incompatible. The attractiveness of this type of mechatronic structure is notably linked to the modular character and the hyper ...
