Obstacle-Aided Locomotion of a Snake Robot Using Piecewise Helixes

RA-L 2022

A non-wheeled snake robot can propel itself by pushing against obstacles. This is called obstacle-aided locomotion. To expand the exploration range of a snake robot using this method, it is preferable to utilize obstacles that are both on the ground and by the side or above. To achieve these goals,

Simultaneous Control of Two Points for Snake Robot and Its Application to Transportation

RA-L 2020

This letter presents a simultaneous trajectory tracking control method for two points of a snake robot. The kinematic model considering two regulated points is determined as a switched system that is switched by lifting a few wheels. The system becomes a kinematically redundant system by the lifting
