Currently, hard building modules and rigid connection systems require mechanical flexibility during inclusion of modules. This mechanism can provide stability and controllability, but reduces the flexibility. As a result, EPFL’s Laboratory of Intelligent System (LIS) has developed soft modular robots to overcome this problem. Modular robots are fabricated with soft and floating modules, which are […]

In most cases, if we think of a robot, suddenly two common things come to our mind such as its rigid structure and metal body appearance. But, here is a totally different and new kind of robot introduced by the scientists of Harvard University, which is flexible and soft. The construction of this robot took […]
