This paper presents a simple and robust kinematic control scheme for the JPL serpentine robot system. The proposed strategy is developed using the dampened-least-squares/configuration control methodology, and permits the considerable dexterity of the JPL serpentine robot to be effectively utilized for maneuvering in the congested and uncertain workspaces often encountered in inspection tasks. Computer simulation results are given for the 20 degree-of-freedom (DOF) manipulator system obtained by mounting the twelve DOF serpentine robot at the end-effector of an eight DOF Robotics Research arm/lathe-bed system. These simulations demonstrate that the proposed approach provides an effective method of controlling this complex system.
