    The demonstration of penetration into sand reminded me of a friend, back in the 90s, that was building a riverbank dock and party platform/deck. The riverbank and bottom were made of a hard, but saturated red clay. My friend clamped a small copper tubu to each of the pillars. The ends were pinched, creating a tiny jet nozzle that extended an inch beyond the pillar bottom, and bent slightly towards the center. When the tube was attached to a small pressure washer, the pillar was positioned where it was needed and the water jet softened the clay directly below the pillar, allowing the weight of the pillar to penetrate up to the 6' needed for securing it into the soil. This was at least 10X faster than driving the pillars, and the suction of the saturated clay held them tighter than a frogs butt. It was amazing. Each pole simply sank into the "mud" until the water was turned off. With enough pillars, the rest of the structure was a "piece of cake"... All accomplished in an afternoon by beer drinking hillbillies..!

    For the intubation tubing, if the robot gives the trachea branch late it will push the trachea lid (epigglotis) shut or even damage it. The string arms you build was good, you could use it to direct the robot to the trachea. Here is another thought, the patient will have a lot of secretions that can fill up and decrease the oxygenation and the secretion needs to be aspirated. We send a second tube down the entubation tube to aspirate. The robot needs a lumen to pass an aspiration tube. Or maybe the robot can be a guide to send a classical intubation tube down from within.

    why not make the tube 2 layer, an inner and outer connected with baffles? Inflate inside to send the tube on its way once its in place inflate between the 2 layers to give tension and compression giving the tube the tube structure that would create a normal pipe with an airway down the middle that you could pass what ever you need with ambient pressure in the middle.

    It looks super useful for areas without access to anaesthetists or emergency specialists who may require intubation. For 99% of cases an anesthetist would be faster, but anaesthetists aren't readily available. There are some conditions where this could be deadly, but 100% I reckon this should be explored further

    Similar concepts were investigated a couple of decades ago and called “topographic” because of their intrinsic conformation to the structure being intubated. They were considered as potentially improving such procedures as enteroscopy. A topographic colonoscope was actually developed , the “Aeroscope.” While it showed promised, I never saw production models.

    I think a much smaller version of this could be used to clean out laptops and other computer parts. If it could fit into the vents and the somehow have a release valve at the tip that could blow out more targeted compressed air, it could save people from having to disassemble computers and open up the heatsinks to clean them. If you could have it blow air or water from the tip, I guess it could clean all sorts of stuff.

    This would be perfect for home electrical work. You could have several points with something that when given a signal or small electrical charge to tighten as it grows to control it, that would be easier than the separate tubes of air, so you can control it in the wall to go more or less where you want.

    @@teeroy7973 You could probably build one with enough patience and time. For the purposes of inspecting pipes it's fairly unnecesary to have any steering, except maybe on the camera itself. That simplifies the design quite a lot, the hardest part would be making it retractable but its nothing you couldn't overcome with a bit of trial and error. I have seen remote control cameras on the ends of long rods for this purpose, perhaps one could be modifies to work with an inflating tube? On a side note, it would be much more fun to build a robotic spider capable of climbing inside of the pipes to inspect them. You could give it little cannons to shoot blockages and turn you day job into a video game.

    I'm gonna try to build a vine robot to lay fiber under my house's floors. The house's floors are made of granite attached on top of a wooden frame, with plenty underneath the frame for a vine robot to crawl through. Unfortunately crawling under the flooring isn't possible, as there's no entry path. With a vine robot, I think we could drill a relatively small hole through the floor, and guide with tape. It seems that adding internal controls adds significantly more complexity, and increases the robots diameter. I'm interested in attaching a IR camera and light source to the front for guidance, however it doesn't seem like there's much information on this. Luckily the distance the robot needs to travel is only around 5m, and mostly a straight path.

    this looks like the same concept design as a super glottic airway device like an I-Gel or King Tube, and inflating the entire thing seems like an unnecessary possible complication for pneumothorax patients with trachea deviation, or the added pressure on the jugular vessels with JVD for example. you need to have the device be able to protect against aspiration, the added equipment of a pump, valves and whatever else. I'm not really seeing the niche of an airway device like this, but if they design it properly maybe it could be great. I guess the idea of inflating an entire tube like this without visual confirmation is my biggest concern. I've missed my fair share of intubations and even tho it hurt my pride, I just whipped out the ole king tube and shoved that bitch in there

    Though ingenious, it is a very old mechanism that is being used to rehabilitate sewer and water pipes trenchlessly for several decades now. The method is called CIPP where a wrapped in tubular FRP liner is sent inside a manhole and it travels across a pipe effortlessly negotiating bends, etc as it unwraps itself. There the pressure used is nearly 7-10mtr head which is almost 14.7psi and instead of air, warm water is used since it helps cure the liner in place, hence the name Cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP). Though, i must say the envisioned applications are great.

You could feed straws through the middle of it, one for liquids and one for oxygen, even a microphone and speaker, so you can communicate with the trapped person and give them reassurances.

    There is a system in place for some of these events. What needs to be realized is the video, for burrowing, was shown in sand for a reason. The material you are penetrating has to be displaced to pass through. Once you get very deep at all this setup will certainly fail in denser soils, and we have not even made it to rock yet. An Air Track unit that bores into rock runs off of air and still uses steel as the tool. The head is bigger than the shaft to create a large enough hole for the accompanied shaft and to displace the material so it can move up the bore spacing and out of the hole. In drilling this is called circulation. To push through any material there needs to be some form of circulation or your achieving the opposite. Compaction. I cannot say, but perhaps this design could be more suited for avalanche scenarios. Need to keep in mind though, snow can condense to a degree, and the deeper you go, you may run into ice chunks. Would you attempt to burrow through it...or go around it. I don't know. I'm just pointing out even snow is potentially abrasive, then again, so is sand. Perhaps a more experienced mind in this field could weigh in?

    There is a currently used version of this robot that is repairing sewer lines across America. The tip has a powered cutting ring that removes blockages. It also pulls a hose that flushes the debree down the line. The cool part is that the tube is pumped with hot water that causes the tube to harden and become a new smooth PVC liner inside the old line. Takes 2 hours to repair half a mile of sewer line. Then a second robot cuts holes in the first tube at places determind by camera to reconnect the side lines.

    I do see a potential concern for application within human tissues however (i.e. choking / bowel obstruction / heart catheterization). Human tissues are incredibly soft and delicate in many systems and can degrade especially with age or disease. In fact, weak spots in the intestinal wall are incredibly dangerous as perforation can occur exposing your body cavity and pleural cavity to sepsis from all the multi-billions of bacteria (friendly or otherwise) in your digestive system. So it's going to be a HUGE challenge to deploy this in-vivo and somehow mitigate the risk of perforation of delicate tissues or delicate systems and making the problem worse (i.e. clearing a blocked artery in the brain). The steering mechanism using artificial muscles is sheer brilliance and I love the idea of deploying this in archaeological settings or even better for confined space rescue like collapse or vehicle accidents. I think this has some amazing applications ahead of it... because fire rescue teams already use compressed air as a rescue medium. Both the "jaws of life" tool and lifting airbags for heavy weights (lifting a car off a person gently) are already commonly employed by most rescue teams. P.S. I was going to say... this is just a water wiggly (didn't know that was the name, thanks for that) with a brain! LOL.
