A Snake-Like Robot with Envelope Wheels and Obstacle-Aided Gaits

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Most of the current snake-like robots can only work in a specific environment, or only have a good movement effect in a certain gait. This paper presents a design for a snake-like robot to improve the adaptability of various environments.

Parameter search of a CPG network using a genetic algorithm for a snake robot with tactile sensors moving on a soft floor

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2023
When a snake robot explores a collapsed house as a rescue robot, it needs to move through various obstacles, some of which may be made of soft materials, such as mattresses.

The Parameterized Complexity of Motion Planning for Snake-Like Robots [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Twenty-Eighth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2019
We study a motion-planning problem inspired by the game Snake that models scenarios like the transportation of linked wagons towed by a locomotor to the movement of a group of agents that travel in an ``ant-like'' fashion. Given a ``snake-like'' robot with initial and final positions in an environment modeled by a graph, our goal is to decide whether ...

Serpentine Locomotion of a Snake-like Robot in Water Environment

open access: yes, 2009
Serpentine Locomotion is the most common and simplest locomotion form of a snake-like robot; its main characteristic is the wave-like undulation of the snake's body. In order to realize the noticeable features of the snake-like robot's serpentine

A geometric approach to modeling of four- and five-link planar snake-like robot

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2016
The article deals with the issue of use of geometric mechanics tools in modelling nonholonomic systems. The introductory part of the article contains fiber bundle theory that we use at creating mathematical model of nonholonomic locomotion system with ...

Gait planning of a scale-driven snake-like robot for winding and obstacle crossing

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2017
Gait planning is an effective approach aiming at the difficulty in locomotion control of a multi-degree-of-freedom snake-like robot. In this article, a gait-generating method is presented with regard to the issue of its locomotion control in the process ...

Adaptive Path Following and Locomotion Optimization of Snake-Like Robot Controlled by the Central Pattern Generator

open access: yesComplexity, 2019
This work investigates locomotion efficiency optimization and adaptive path following of snake-like robots in a complex environment. To optimize the locomotion efficiency, it takes energy consumption and forward velocity into account to investigate the ...
