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 ...

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.

Mechanochemically Active Soft Robots
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2015The functions of soft robotics are intimately tied to their form-channels and voids defined by an elastomeric superstructure that reversibly stores and releases mechanical energy to change shape, grip objects, and achieve complex motions. Here, we demonstrate that covalent polymer mechanochemistry provides a viable mechanism to convert the same ...

Soft electronics for soft robotics
SPIE Proceedings, 2015As advanced as modern machines are, the building blocks have changed little since the industrial revolution, leading to rigid, bulky, and complex devices. Future machines will include electromechanical systems that are soft and elastically deformable, lending them to applications such as soft robotics, wearable/implantable devices, sensory skins, and ...
