ABSTRACT The utilization of autonomous intelligent robots SNAKE ROBOTS in search and rescue (SAR) is a new and challenging field of robotics, dealing with tasks in extremely hazardous and complex disaster environments. Considering the large number of people who have died due to reactive,spontaneous,and unprofessional rescue efforts resulting from a lack of adequate equipment or lack of immediate response, researchers have naturally been developing mechatronic rescue tools and strategic planning techniques for planned rescue operations Autonomy, high mobility, robustness, and modularity are critical design issues of rescue robotics, requiring dexterous devices equipped with the ability to learn from prior rescue experience, adaptable to variable types of usage with a wide enough functionality under different sensing modules, and compliant to environmental and victim conditions. Intelligent, biologically inspired mobile robots and,
