Head-Raising Method of Snake Robots Based on the Bézier Curve
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 June 2020
Summary
For acquiring a broad view in an unknown environment, we proposed a control strategy based on the Bézier curve for the snake robot raising its head. Then, an improved discretization method was developed to accommodate the backbone curves with more complex shapes. Besides, in order to determine the condition of using the improved discretization method, energy of framed space curve is introduced originally to estimate the shape complexity of the backbone curve. At last, based on degree elevation of the Bézier curve, an obstacle avoidance strategy of the head-raising motion was proposed and validated through simulation.
