Snake Robot Design


Angular Bevel Joint Designs:
Here we are trying to develop a new compact two DOF joints. We work on optimizing the size, strength, reachability and flexibility of these joints. So far we have designed three new types of joints. We have already design and built many prototypes:

Angular Bevel

Orientation Preserving

Gearless*

Double Angular Bevel

Our Family of Joint designs
*While this is an angular joint, as its name implys, it has no bevel gears
