Modular Snake Robot Pipes

[SoCalFreelance]

The high energy techno is a bit much, would much rather hear the multiple servos

Oh, and look at the trailer for the next Transformers movie and you'll see a much larger version of this bot destroying buildings :D

[eddiequest4]

Fabulous movements, very articulate... However, um, that music.... wtf?

[josephwinstons]

Excellent Gait design for complex movements. How many links can stretch across without any support with these tiny motor torques??

[Digeridude]

How loud are these? I get the feeling the motors make an obnoxious EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE noise the whole time.

[Anothercoilgun]

Could be memory or muscle wire. Those are completely silent.

[blinder8]

wtf if you dont like the music just turn volume off, i personally think its good for the video.

[olesto]

How do you plan putting a battery on that thing?

[guyfoxthe3rd]

put a lipo batery on on in each segment :)

[Dreamrio]

I hope it is a starting point. Could you take out the power cable, and make the snake more realistic object. I do not want to be mean to your project. Just I feel the way I said.

[TimtitsMCfly]

why do people put this sort of music on videos?

[Liltokee]

to make it more exciting i suppose

[mnrobb]

Howie took this concept into robotic surgery - he is brilliant!

[berry24]

creepy but will be cool if there's skin on it then the snake would look cool and creepier.

wished the song was different too; it was kinda annoying.

[apanap556]

Cool robot, but music makes me want to commit suicide...

[megded1]

yeah, hat song is frickin' annoying

[jet79637]

Put a live feed camera on this thing, put in my wall so I can see what is going on with my electrical!!!

[sec0f111]

this is so awesome i'm freaking out. was this made by students?

[Lebuzz1]

Now it needs its skin.

[Ganxiba]

awesome

[js53092]

real mature

[bboywildthang]

i can do that

[jhiggi1701]

this is the creepiest thing i have ever seen

[supertrex2]

haha nice, maybe this is true?

[zackpots]

its verry good. its jerky, but good.

[Youdontknowme124565]

does this thing have a auto leveler? makes it have a level picture no matter how the "head" is angeled?

[goldenwaters13]

why?

[CodyA210]

i bet a proctologist thought of this.

[DallamaX]

is it self aware?

[tr1zzl]

booty hole

[iloveanime884]

Only i will be alive after 100 yrs. im 568next year.

[ferfontes]

its not a robot

it was made screen by screen

you know how they do that shit, taking a part of the video, pausing, moving th figure, record, pause move it record pause move it.

at least thats what i see

[BlitzBalla32]

actually most of these videos are real

they are really slow moving robots since they aren't that technically advanced

they take time to figure out the obstacle or problem

they speed up the time so u don't have to wait a really long time to see a simple thing happen

[CMUBiorobotics]

You are incorrect, all of these videos are real time...

[mostliberal]

I think if this technology is developed to the point where it can rival real snakes, this will be used for spying/surveillance.

[CMUBiorobotics]

no, you are incorrect, these are all real time videos, and if you come to campus, you can see them live.

[woodlandstick]

what???

this is intense

but weird

O.o

[staphinfection]

If robots take over the world..... atleast they'll do a better fucking job than we ever would.

SAVE US OH MIGHTY ROBOTS!

[elpicos8091]

Bitch shut up

[Here2QuestionYou]

Why build something as large as a snake to inspect weld joints? Sure it "looks cool" but is it really practical?

[xxrazaxx]

HHAHHAAHAA....shit son....how did you know...

[MeKa360]

Dude, like 100 years from now

they gonna make these things life-like

an they gonna put posion into them

and be sent out as robotic assasins

so watch out

[KelseyMilk]

we won't be alive 100 years from now.

[oneillkza]

I would say the U.S. military will be packing weaponised versions of these within 10 years.

And poison - pfft. Try a canister of CS gas, or a small grenade launcher...

[johnr1031]

no one watching this video will be alive in 100 years... so dont worry about it =]

[albiel07]

ROBOTS WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD!11!!

[bunnyman135]

.... I don't like this at all.

[emilianus12]

loool:| dude this might be useful:| in maintance operations

[TRohr]

Would be extremely useful in maintaining things. Needs a bit of tweaking though, and its limitations would probably be pretty high until THE FUTURE!

[icedragon620]

Oh Gawd the possiblities.

[ChinoRockz]

Lol

[mandscat]

Wow

[Razx211]

DO A BARREL ROLL

[j088423]

HA!

[bleenachihuahua1]

land snakes alive!!

[trogrey121]

Cool stuff. When will there be a wireless version?

[zedzded]

I will flipping run screaming like a little girl if one of those every comes up out of the toilet...

[aventureromtb]

Muy bueno

[spake11]

Man thats crazy stuff. Their website has more cool videos, like where its swimming
