Abstract
This paper introduces a new concept of snake like robot "Slim Slime Robot 2 (SSR-II)" using "Bridle Bellows" that is new mechanism, which has an added degree of freedom to stretch the body segments. SSR-II is capable of performing several tasks in narrow spaces, such as moving under collapsed houses and inspecting pipelines at plants.
