Abstract:
This paper presents the SnakeFighter concept and describes the generic element within this concept in the form of a water hydraulic snake robot. Applications of a SnakeFighter system are presented with focus on fire intervention tasks. The development of a water hydraulic snake robot that demonstrates the concept is described. The robot is the first water hydraulic snake robot ever constructed. The paper identifies design challenges of a complete SnakeFighter system and describes future research on this concept
