IROS 2024

Passive tumbling structures are energy efficient, but often sacrifice control authority due to their under actuated nature. Unlike many passive tumbling robots, Northeastern University’s COBRA is a snake robot with eleven articulated joints that transforms into a wheel-like structure with a high deg

IROS 2024poster

Object manipulation has been extensively studied in the context of fixed base and mobile manipulators. However, the overactuated locomotion modality employed by snake robots allows for a unique blend of object manipulation through locomotion, referred to as loco-manipulation. The following work pres…
