The work in this paper delves into the challenge of whole elongated body's obstacle avoidance during path following for a class of bionic snake robots. Currently, most studies focus solely on preventing the robot's head from colliding with obstacles through designed controllers. However, due to the unique elongated structure and biomimetic locomotion modes of snake robots, it is unavoidable that t...
