Soft Robotic Snake with Tunable Undulatory Gait for Efficient Underwater Locomotion
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study designs an underwater soft snake robot using 3D‐printed soft actuators, controlled by specific signals to generate sinusoidal undulation. Results show a positive correlation between speed and swing amplitude, with optimal performance at 2/3π phase offset, PLA tail, 1.2 voltage growth rate, and 6s undulation period achieving a maximum speed ...

Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering, 2015
In nature, nanometer-scale molecular motors are used to generate force within cells for diverse processes from transcription and transport to muscle contraction. This adaptability and scalability across wide temporal, spatial, and force regimes have spurred the development of biological soft robotic systems that seek to mimic and extend these ...

Soft Robots in Space: A Perspective for Soft Robotics
2013Deploying robots in space has been difficult due to safety concerns and the need to operate in confined weightless environments that are complex and 3-dimensional. Some of these concerns can be addressed by deploying soft robots that can change shape, attach to surfaces and climb robustly independent of gravity.

Karel Capek introduced the word robot in his short story "Opilec" first time in 1917, and then his famous play "Rossum's Universal Robots" in 1923, where he used the word robota to mean forced labor or unpleasant work. This led the development of many fictional robots with the aim of harming humanbeings.

Growing and Evolving Soft Robots
Artificial Life, 2014Completely soft and flexible robots offer to revolutionize fields ranging from search and rescue to endoscopic surgery. One of the outstanding challenges in this burgeoning field is the chicken-and-egg problem of body-brain design: Development of locomotion requires the preexistence of a locomotion-capable body, and development of a location-capable ...
