Abstract

Compared to other types of robots, snake robots have many advantages and are able to work in special environments such as narrow spaces. In this paper, we design a remote-controlled snake robot with orthogonal connections by investigating the structural design and motion planning algorithms according to performance requirements. Experiments have shown that the snake robot designed in this paper can move quickly on flat surfaces and can also enter narrow environments for detection. In post-disaster rescue, the snake robot can be used to enter through narrow passages, detect trapped people and improve rescue efficiency.
