Improving Soft Snake Robot Locomotion Through Targeted Environmental Interactions Using Artificial Snake Skin

Creator:

Branyan, Callie A.

Abstract:

This dissertation outlines the design and development of the first fully-soft, snake robot and its snake-inspired skin. Soft robotics takes advantage of soft materials to, among other things, improve robot interactions with complex, unstructured environments. Due to the interplay between the soft material and the environment, minor tweaks to the...
