Biological systems, including human beings, have the innate ability to perform complex
tasks in a versatile and agile manner. Researchers in sensorimotor control have aimed to …

Snake robots have advantages of terrain adaptability over wheeled mobile robots and
traditional articulated robot arms because of their limbless thin body structure and high …

Traversing rough terrains is one of the domains where multi-legged walking robots benefit
from their relatively more complex kinematics in comparison to wheeled robots. The …

Soft continuum robot is of superiority in the applications in unstructured environments due to
its high flexibility and safe interaction ability. Accurate shape control is regarded as one of …

The Carnegie Mellon University Biorobotics Laboratory was invited to bring snake robots to
Mexico City to assist with search and rescue efforts in the wake of the September 2017 …

The snake robot, which mimics the mechanism of real snakes, is expected to be used in
various environments. This article addresses the challenge of snake robots autonomously …

Snakes can move through almost any terrain. Although their locomotion on flat surfaces
using planar gaits is inherently stable, when snakes deform their body out of plane to …

Snakes can move through almost any terrain. Similarly, snake robots hold the promise as a
versatile platform to traverse complex environments such as earthquake rubble. Unlike …

State-of-the-art distributed algorithms for reinforcement learning rely on multiple
independent agents, which simultaneously learn in parallel environments 1 while …

A snake robot performs diverse motions. To realize a wide range functions in a complex
environment, it is necessary to transition between various motions suited to each …
