Abstract
Bionics is a subject that studies various excellent characteristics such as the structure, function and information control of organisms. These characteristics will give us a lot of inspiration in terms of mechanical design and will also provide new construction ideas for practical engineering applications. In this paper, based on the structural characteristics of the natural biological snake, a bionic snake-like robot with a meandering posture is designed. Bionic snake-like robot uses STM32F103ZET6 MCU and 16-way servo control board as the main control unit. The servo provides the driving force. Through the use of pulleys and various sensors, functions such as various attitude movements and real-time detection are realized. Using Solidworks software to carry out 3D modeling of the bionic snake-like robot and make a bionic snake-like robot model for experimental testing. The physical model size is 120mm*120mm*850mm. The results show that: on a relatively flat ground, the time for the bionic snake-like robot to move through a horizontal distance of 1m is about 5.50s. The bionic snake-like robot runs stably during the test and has no stuttering phenomenon.
