Researchers have replicated a snake's highly efficient rectilinear locomotion in a new all-terrain robot called Scalybot 2.

Rectilinear: Specialized muscles move the belly skin of a snake, propelling it forward in a straight line. This allows snakes to slip through burrows not much bigger than they are. RELATED TOPICS ...

The perfect mechanism for this motion is a rolling wheel that turns on its axle to move along its trajectory. Assuming no slippage, its relative motion with the contact surface is zero.
