Abstract :
We define the redundancy controllable system of hyper-redundant mechanical systems. We derive the condition that the hyper-redundant snake robots become redundancy controllable, and the control law considering the redundancy. We also propose the concept of a unit and the system design strategy of the snake robots. Simulation results are shown
