  • Abstract
    In this paper, we develop an autonomous snake-like robot that operates in rubble. We designed the robot to reduce the load placed on the autonomous controller, which was achieved using only two-dimensional information. Experiments showed that the robot is effective in chasing a target while overcoming various obstacles.
