The snake robot research was formally presented at the conference on Neurotechnology for Biomimetic Robots, May 14-16, 2000.
Details of the snake robots on this website are described in detail in a chapter of the book arising from that conference, which includes a picture of S5 on the cover.
An excellent list of the world's other snake robots is kept by Rainer Worst at GMD.
