Soft Robotics

Soft robotics is a field of robotics that focuses on creating robots from flexible, soft materials instead of rigid components. These robots can mimic the movements of living organisms, allowing them to navigate complex environments and interact gently with objects and people. Soft robots can squeeze into tight spaces, adapt to various tasks, and handle delicate objects without causing damage. Their design is inspired by nature, combining engineering with biology to enhance functionality and safety, making them suitable for applications in medicine, agriculture, and exploration.
