Modeling and control simulation of a bio-inspired underwater snake robot with a novel rigid–soft coupling structure

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2023
The underwater snake robot is a new type of bio-inspired unmanned underwater vehicle. Because snake robots are made of rigid materials, the utilization of articulated joints in a snake robot reduces the degrees of freedom, increases the probability of ...

Simplified motion modeling for snake robots [PDF]

open access: yes2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2012
We present a general method of estimating a snake robot's motion over flat ground using only knowledge of the robot's shape changes over time. Estimating world motion of snake robots is often difficult because of the complex way a robot's cyclic shape changes (gaits) interact with the surrounding environment.
