Recent Advances in Variable‐Stiffness Robotic Systems Enabled by Phase‐Change Materials
Phase‐change materials (PCMs), such as shape memory alloys, hydrogels, shape memory polymers, liquid crystal elastomers, and low‐melting‐point alloys, are driving advancements in stiffness‐tunable robotic systems across a wide range of applications. This review highlights recent progress in PCM‐enabled robotics, focusing on their underlying mechanisms,
