This is obviously in the prototype phase and improvements will be made in the future. It's a great concept. The snake design will allow it to move though burning building debris without disturbing it too much, keeping the building stable while it sprays down hard to reach areas that normally would be bypassed or need to be chopped by axe to get to. It'll make the fireman's job a lot safer...

Every success, no matter how small are absolutely vital to creating or discovering anything. Considering the amount of work thats gone into it to this point this is no small feat and a more viable prototype cannot be created without first reaching this step. Save the negitive comments, this is just one of many steps forward.

To improve the movement of Anna Konda might I suggest you study the trail of a sidewinder as it moves across sand. The trail it leaves, horizontal lines, is no indication of the motion a sidewinder makes to move itself forward. Anna Konda needs to increase if articulation in order to improve its forward motion. Also, a skin that increases traction when energized might improve performance. Things you might have already considered. Note to Commenters, try to add value to the design.

Lots of people seem to expect it to be a fire fighting transformer. Seriously, I doubt it's meant to be close to anything that's practically used to extinguish fires. It's more of an exercise and it makes just as much sense as robots playing football, climbing stairs, following lines, wrestling, etc. It's important to research different means of locomotion that we observe in animals. Rome was not built in a day so hush... And yes, make it spit fire instead, please :)

Great idea. It's perfect for fighting fires in a collapsing building. If the roof fell on something with wheels it would be immobilized. If the roof fell on something that could slither, it could shake itself free.

I wonder if it would be viable to fit some really small wheels along the outside (perhaps a few on each section, inset in the section so as not to impede sideways movement and all that), and allow the Anna Konda to not only sidewind and roll itself over, but zip around on flat surfaces. It seems like the overall design would be great for getting into tight spots (say, a hole in a wall), and miniature wheels could let it zip through spots where it couldn't move around normally.

What it could have to improve is just small little solid pushers, like metal pins at angles that extrude and retract at different intervals every few joints to be able to move forward. It could still work in rubble because of their angles.

the speed isnt the problem, its the physics of moving the water without effecting the robots range of motion. a fully opened firehouse running thru the robot would fuck it up. thats why in the video the ammount of water it sprayed was so minute. if it could only spray that much the robot would be useless.

It doesn't move forward because it has no traction. You notice the bare metal on smooth wood? This could easily be fixed by putting some kind of high-friction skin on it, like sand embedded in rubber (or some other, more fire resistant material. Whatever.). Since, so far, they haven't got it to move without being plugged into the power supply or controlling computer or whatever that is, I'm guessing they don't want it getting too far away.
