Sensing in Soft Robotics

open access: yesACS Nano, 2023
Soft robotics is an exciting field of science and technology that enables robots to manipulate objects with human-like dexterity. Soft robots can handle delicate objects with care, access remote areas, and offer realistic feedback on their handling performance. However, increased dexterity and mechanical compliance of soft robots come with the need for

An Overview of Soft Robotics

open access: yesAnnual Review of Control, Robotics, and Autonomous Systems, 2023
Soft robots’ flexibility and compliance give them the potential to outperform traditional rigid-bodied robots while performing multiple tasks in unexpectedly changing environments and conditions. However, soft robots are yet to reveal their full potential; nature is still far more advanced in several areas, such as locomotion and manipulation.

Is a Soft Robot More “Natural”? Exploring the Perception of Soft Robotics in Human–Robot Interaction [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Social Robotics, 2021
Soft robotics technology has been proposed for a number of applications that involve human–robot interaction. It is commonly presumed that soft robots are perceived as more natural, and thus more appealing, than rigid robots, an assumption that has not hitherto been tested or validated.
