Experimental study of passive creeping for a snake-like robot

, 2011
The control of a snake-like robot is a challenging problem because of unknown environments and complex dynamics. We have proposed an energy-based method, called passive creeping, to control the serpentine locomotion. In the paper, we present a hypothesis

Twist-related locomotion of a snake-like robot

, 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

Perception-Driven Obstacle-Aided Locomotion for Snake Robots: The State of the Art, Challenges and Possibilities †

Applied Sciences, 2017
In nature, snakes can gracefully traverse a wide range of different and complex environments. Snake robots that can mimic this behaviour could be fitted with sensors and transport tools to hazardous or confined areas that other robots and humans are ...
