The versatile motion capability of snake robots offers themselves robust adaptability in varieties of challenging environments where traditional robots may be incapacitated. This study reports a novel flexible snake robot featuring a rigid–flexible coupling structure and multiple motion gaits. To better understand the robot’s behavior, a bending model for the soft actuator is established. Furthermore, a dynamic model is developed to map the relationship between the input air pressure and joint torque, which is the model base for controlling the robot effectively. Based on the wave motion generated by the joint coupling direction function in different planes, multiple motion gait planning methods of the snake-like robot are proposed. In order to evaluate the adaptability and maneuverability of the developed snake robot, extensive experiments were conducted in complex environments. The results demonstrate the robot’s effectiveness in navigating through intricate settings, underscoring its potential for applications in various fields.
