Research about Intelligent Snake Robot

Kinematics Model of Snake Robot Considering Snake Scale

Problem statement: In snake robot research, one of the most efficient forms of locomotion is the lateral undulation. However, lateral undulation, also known as serpentine locomotion, is illsuited for narrow spaces, as the body of the snake must assume a certain amount of curvature to propel forward. Approach: To overcome the inability to adapt to narrow spaces, a novel type of a gait was introd...

Robio-2010 " Snake P3 " : a Semi-autonomous Snake Robot

Here in this paper we present a snake robot which can autonomously change its gait depending on the terrain. Also we present the design and construction details for the same. Here a custom simulator for the robot and an API for the same was developed which reduced the design and development time. For controlling the Snake robot manually a data glove using accelerometers was developed. The Snake...

Estimation and Calibration of Robot Link Parameters with Intelligent Techniques

Abstract: Using robot manipulators for high accuracy applications require precise value of the kinematics parameters. Since measurement of kinematics parameters are usually associated with errors and accurate measurement of them is an expensive task, automatic calibration of robot link parameters makes the task of kinematics parameters determination much easier. In this paper a simple and easy ...

Adding Vision to a Salamander/Snake-Robot

Gesture Based control of Snake robot

In this paper we present a new gesture based control for snake robot using a custom developed accelerometer based data glove. This Snake robot which was biologically inspired was developed for the purpose of search and rescue and serve as a research platform for its locomotion analysis. The locomotion of Snakes is because a differential curve traveling in its body from the head to the tail and ...
