@patrick1wtf dude.. have you seen videos of sand boas and desert snakes? they all move sideways. they cant move and get buried in the loose sand if they do the regular snake motions. this is inspired by that.
...really? do yourself a favor and type "sidewinder" in the search bar and watch the animal planet video. not to be a dick, but theres a reason they call the actual snake a Sidewinder -_-
There's nothing anthropomorphic about this bot, but I experienced something akin to 'the uncanny valley' while I was watching it undulate and writhe about.
the purpose of the video is to demonstrate how the sidewinder moves with no more than points at a time touchhing the ground to minimize the amount of body contact with the hot desert sand.
And the point is?

It would be really interesting if all of these things could be made to receive commands from each other and move as a whole in complex ways.
