Robots will have to overcome obstacles of all kind in real-world scenarios. Flexible robots are great for handling fragile items but have certain limitations. Researchers have now come up with a new robot design with a movable bending point that allows it to bend anywhere along its trunk to overcome obstacles. It can shift its bending position as it is needed to operate in confined spaces.

Crawler Robot with Movable Bending Point
This crawler robot has a pretty simple structure: it has a crawler belt, support parts, and a movable motor unit as well as a fixed motor unit. The movable unit has 2 motors. When they move in sync and the other motor is stopped, the robot can bend its body. When the motors move in sync, the robot moves forward.
