Robots have been and will always be a research topic. This paper illustrates the working of a Snake robot which is constructed by chaining together a number of independent segments which makes it hyper redundant. Snake robot can maneuver through thin spaces due to its shape and hence very helpful at places where human reachability is difficult. This robot moves by avoiding the obstacles in its path. In this project work, we have included a metal detection sensor in this robot so that it can be used in a variety of applications like landmine detection for military purposes. The communication to the robot is done via Bluetooth and operated from an android phone. With further innovations, the snake robot can be used in a large number of applications.
