"Advantages
Many robots are limited by the use of motorized wheels. However, there are many advantages for building a robot that mimics the motion of a snake. Several advantages for movement of a snake robot are listed below:
Move across uneven terrain, since it is not dependent on wheels
Possibly swim if water-proofed
Move across soft ground such as sand, since it can distribute its weight across a wider area
Also, from a systems standpoint, the snake robot can be very modular with many redundant segments. As a result, it is very easy to replace broken segments as well as shorten or lengthen the robot.
Disadvantages
Although there are many advantages for building a snake like robot, there are several disadvantages which are listed below:
Low power and movement efficiency
High cost of actuators (servos or motors)
Difficult to control high number of degrees of freedom"
