Joint elasticity produces energy efficiency in underwater locomotion: Verification with deep reinforcement learning

Underwater snake robots have received attention because of their unique mechanics and locomotion patterns. Given their highly redundant degrees of freedom, designing an energy-efficient gait has been a main challenge for the long-term autonomy of underwater snake robots. We propose a gait design met...
