A bioinspired modular soft robotic arm
Engineering Research Express, 2023Abstract A human arm is a vital instrument for performing various tasks. To imitate natural design, we developed and characterized a bioinspired modular soft robotic arm fabricated from fabric thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). The soft robotic arm comprises three link sections, three joints, and an end-effector.

Scaling Up Soft Robotics: A Meter-Scale, Modular, and Reconfigurable Soft Robotic System
Soft Robotics, 2022Today's use of large-scale industrial robots is enabling extraordinary achievement on the assembly line, but these robots remain isolated from the humans on the factory floor because they are very powerful, and thus dangerous to be around. In contrast, the soft robotics research community has proposed soft robots that are safe for human environments ...

A modular approach to soft robots
2012 4th IEEE RAS & EMBS International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics (BioRob), 2012This paper describes a modular approach to creating soft robotic systems. The basis of these systems is an elastomeric actuation element powered by direct mechanical energy in the form of pressurized fluids. Fluidic elastomer actuators are fast and inexpensive to fabricate and offer safety and adaptability to robotic systems.
