Sensor-driven neural controller for self-adaptive collision-free behavior of a snake-like robot

open access: yes, 2011
Biologically inspired control approaches based on the central pattern generator (CPG) have been studied to apply to a snake-like robot. One of the important problems is to determine how to construct a sensor-driven neural system in order to control the ...

Exploring the Use and Impact of Composite Materials in Robotics: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lightweight and high‐strength materials are important in robotics, as structural design impacts efficiency, payload capacity, and energy consumption. Composite materials, with their superior stiffness‐to‐weight ratios and multifunctional properties, offer clear advantages over conventional metals and polymers.

Twist-related locomotion of a snake-like robot

open access: yes, 2006
As a hyper-redundant robot, a 3D snake-like robot can perform many other configurations and types of locomotion adapted to environment except for mimicking the natural snake locomotion. The natural snake locomotion usually limits locomotion capability of

Sampling, Mobility, and Anchoring in Small‐Body Sampling Robots: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Small‐body sampling robots are exploration systems that perform contact, sampling, and stable operations on microgravity bodies such as asteroids and comets. The authors review representative robot architectures and key technologies, focusing on the mechanisms, evolution, and coupling of sampling, mobility, and anchoring.

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 ...

Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.

Head-Raising of Snake Robots Based on a Predefined Spiral Curve Method

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
A snake robot has to raise its head to acquire a wide visual space for planning complex tasks such as inspecting unknown environments, tracking a flying object and acting as a manipulator with its raising part.

Locomotion control of a snake-like robot based on velocity disturbance

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents a novel method based on the velocity disturbance to control the locomotion of a snake-like robot. The inputs are joint torques which are derived from the dynamics equations. The traditional dynamics equations of a snake-like robot are
