SenSnake: A snake robot with contact force sensing for studying locomotion in complex 3-D terrain

ICRA 2022poster

Despite advances in a diversity of environments, snake robots are still far behind snakes in traversing complex 3-D terrain with large obstacles. This is due to a lack of understanding of how to control 3-D body bending to push against terrain features to generate and control propulsion. Biological…

Modulation of Robot Orientation Via Leg-Obstacle Contact Positions

RA-L 2020

We study a quadrupedal robot traversing a structured (i.e., periodically spaced) obstacle field driven by an open-loop quasi-static trotting walk. Despite complex, repeated collisions and slippage between robot legs and obstacles, the robot's horizontal plane body orientation (yaw) trajectory can co
