International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2017 Due to the great adaptability, snake-like robots can serve as special intelligent service robots. In this article, a novel triple-layered central pattern generator (CPG)-based controller is proposed to control the 3D locomotion of snake-like robots.

Robotic modelling of snake traversing large, smooth obstacles reveals stability benefits of body compliance [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2020 Snakes can move through almost any terrain. Although their locomotion on flat surfaces using planar gaits is inherently stable, when snakes deform their body out of plane to traverse complex terrain, maintaining stability becomes a challenge.

Neural oscillator network-based controller for meandering locomotion of snake-like robots
, 2004 In this paper, we propose a control architecture for meandering locomotion of snake-like robots based on neural oscillator network (NON). The proposed architecture is composed of a network of central pattern generators (CPGs) to realize propagation of ...

Simplified motion modeling for snake robots [PDF]
2012 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.
