Snakes Improve Search-and-Rescue RobotsDesigning an all-terrain robot for search-and-rescue
missions is an arduous task for scientists. The machine must be flexible enough
to move over uneven surfaces, yet not so big that it?s restricted from tight
spaces. It might also be required to climb slopes of varying inclines. Existing
robots can do many of these things, but the majority require large amounts of energy
and are prone to overheating. Georgia Tech researchers have designed a new machine
by studying the locomotion of snakes.
