The Eelume is primarily designed to inspect, maintain and repair subsea infrastructure, primarily for offshore drilling installations. [2] [3] It may also have military applications, including for mine countermeasures and undersea surveillance. [2] The Eelume is intended to be able to dive 500 meters beneath the surface. [4]
Pettersen is the coauthor of two books in the Springer-Verlag Advances in Industrial Control Series: Snake Robots: Modelling, Mechatronics, and Control (with Pål Liljebäck, Øyvind Stavdahl, and Jan Tommy Gravdahl, 2013) and Vehicle-Manipulator Systems: Modeling for Simulation, Analysis, and Control (with Pål Johan From and Jan Tommy Gravdahl, 2014).
A snakebot, also referred to as a snake robot, is a biomorphic robot that resembles a snake. Snakebots have uses similar to those of certain types of soft robots. [1] Snakebots can vary significantly in size and design. Their small cross-section-to-length ratios allow them to maneuver through tight spaces.
As we've seen, snake-like robots have long since move beyond the realm of nightmares into a frightening reality, and they just seem to keep on getting more and more plentiful. This latest one ...
Snake-arm robots are also described as continuum robots and elephant's trunk robots although these descriptions are restrictive in their definitions and cannot be applied to all snake-arm robots. A continuum robot is a continuously curving manipulator, much like the arm of an octopus. An elephant's trunk robot is a good descriptor of a ...

Howie Choset is a professor at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute.His research includes snakebots, or robots designed in a segmented fashion to mimic snake-like actuation and motion, [1] [2] demining, and coverage.
An example of an AUV interacting directly with its environment is the Crown-Of-Thorns Starfish Robot created by the Queensland University of Technology (QUT). The COTSBot finds and eradicates crown-of-thorns starfish ( Acanthaster planci ), a species that damages the Great Barrier Reef .
