Sliders
They're propelled by selectively sliding body parts or appendages across the ground



As the name implies, sliders move themselves across the ground by selectively sliding body parts along. So far, sliders come in 3 sub-categories:

Snakes

Propel themselves via a horizontal wave motion

Earthworms

Propel themselves via a compressive longitudinal wave motion

Miscellaneous

Odd, non-biologically-inspired robots
