In this paper, we will propose the controller of a 2-DOF head in a snake robot for effective
image data reading when the snake robot is driving, and present an error-based adaptive …

This paper reports the design, analysis, and control of a miniature vibration-driven planar
locomotion robot called Shell. A vibration-driven system is able to achieve locomotion based …

Snake robots constitute bio-inspired solutions that have been studied due to their ability to
move in challenging environments where other types of robots, such as wheeled or legged …

Image stabilization is important for snake robots to be used as mobile robots. In this paper,
we propose an adaptive robust RBF neural network nonsingular terminal sliding mode …

This work investigates locomotion efficiency optimization and adaptive path following of
snake‐like robots in a complex environment. To optimize the locomotion efficiency, it takes …

Along with the advancement of robot skin technology, there has been notable progress in
the development of snake robots featuring body-surface tactile perception. In this study, we …

In this paper, we restrict our attention to sidewinding locomotion and present detailed
kinematics and dynamics of a 3-D multi-link snake robot. To obtain kinematics of three …

Classical snake robot control leverages mimicking snake-like gaits tuned for specific
environments. However, to operate adaptively in unstructured environments, gait generation …

This paper considers the tracking control of curved paths for an underwater snake robot, and
investigates the methods used to improve energy efficiency. Combined with the path …

It is extremely difficult to collect deep lunar soil samples during lunar exploration, as the
average thickness of lunar soils is very large, and the power of lunar soil sampling systems …
