Danish researchers have created an origami snake-like robot capable of potentially conducting search and rescue missions at disaster sites or exploring other planets in the future. The robot moves using rectilinear locomotion, mimicking the motion of real snakes. While many envision snakes slithering in an S-shaped pattern, known as serpentine locomotion, this robot demonstrates one
