Allen Pan, an engineer from Los Angeles, decided to give back to snakes the legs that they had lost in the process of evolution.
What is known
The design consists of two pairs of legs and a longplastic tube with holes on both sides. The legs were modeled after a lizard and 3D printed. They are powered by two servomotors and are activated wirelessly.
The engineer tested his development on a toysnake before testing the mechanism on a live one. When creating the frame, Allen Pan was inspired by the three-toed skink. This is a lizard with four small legs that looks more like a snake.
