ReQuBiS - Reconfigurable Quadrupedal-Bipedal Snake Robots [PDF]

open access: yes2021 IEEE 17th International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE), 2021
The selection of mobility modes for robot navigation consists of various trade-offs. Snake robots are ideal for traversing through constrained environments such as pipes, cluttered and rough terrain, whereas bipedal robots are more suited for structured environments such as stairs.

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 ...

IRIS: Integrated Robotic Intraocular Snake [PDF]

open access: yes2015 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2015
Retinal surgery is one of the most technically challenging surgical disciplines. Many robotic systems have been developed to enhance the surgical capabilities. However, very few of them provide the surgeon the dexterity within the patient's eye to enable more flexible, more advanced surgical procedures.

Gait Design for a Snake Robot by Connecting Curve Segments and Experimental Demonstration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper presents a method for designing the gait of a snake robot that moves in a complicated environment. We propose a method for expressing the target form of a snake robot by connecting curve segments whose curvature and torsion are already known ...

Improved Integrated Robotic Intraocular Snake

open access: yes2020 International Symposium on Medical Robotics (ISMR), 2020
Retinal surgery can be performed only by surgeons possessing advanced surgical skills because of the small, confined intraocular space, and the restricted free motion of instruments in contact with the sclera. Snake-like robots could be essential for use in retinal surgery to overcome this problem.
