Are you afraid of snakes? How about robots?

Snake robots are tiny robots that have all the advantages of a snake and is a good example of innovation inspired by nature and bio mimicry.
These robots can be used to do jobs that are dangerous, jobs that require access to small spaces, and jobs that require the precise workings of a robot.
Snake robots can access places and do things that conventional robots and humans cannot, they can be used for many purposes like medical treatment, archeological digs, rescue efforts, etc.
