Figure 3: Kinds of snake locomotion. (Micu, 2018). There are different types of locomotion in snakes based on the condition of the terrain and the type of environment. In the development of the project the cards and control can reproduce any of the 4 forms types of snake’s locomotion presented in figure 3, however, the applications of the control system and the communications of the cards focused the serpentine locomotion, as verification of control system. (Rollinson, 2014).

The simulation includes the implementation of the joint trajectories in the mechanical modules of the robot. As a result, the robot design has been taken to the URDF format compatible by the RVIZ simulator and through the publisher and subscriber of ROS. The described angles previously and the equations produce the simulated trajectories on RVIZ. (Sanfilippo, 2017; Stavdahl, 2017).
