2. Soft robotics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_robotics

   Soft robotics is a subfield of robotics that concerns the design, control, and fabrication of robots composed of compliant materials, instead of rigid links. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In contrast to rigid-bodied robots built from metals, ceramics and hard plastics, the compliance of soft robots can improve their safety when working in close contact with humans.

3. Soft exoskeleton - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_exoskeleton

   A soft exoskeleton, also known as a soft wearable robot or a soft robotic exosuit, is a type of wearable robotic device designed to augment and enhance the physical abilities of the human body. Unlike traditional rigid exoskeletons , which are typically made of hard materials like metal and are worn over the user's limbs, soft exoskeletons are ...

4. Articulated soft robotics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articulated_soft_robotics

   The term “soft robots” designs a broad class of robotic systems whose architecture includes soft elements, with much higher elasticity than traditional rigid robots. Articulated Soft Robots are robots with both soft and rigid parts, inspired to the muscloloskeletal system of vertebrate animals – from reptiles to birds to mammalians to humans.

5. Soft Growing Robotics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_Growing_Robotics

   Soft Growing Robotics is a subset of soft robotics concerned with designing and building robots that use robot body expansion to move and interact with the environment.. Soft growing robots are built from compliant materials and attempt to mimic how vines, plant shoots, and other organisms reach new locations through growth.

6. Adaptable robotics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptable_robotics

   The kits also come with common robotics hardware that connects easily with the software (infrared sensors, motors, microphone and video camera), which add to the capabilities of the robot. [ 7 ] The process of modifying a robot to achieve varying capabilities such as collaboration could merely include the selection of a module, the exchange of ...

7. Educational robotics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Educational_robotics

   Robotics engineers design robots, maintain them, develop new applications for them, and conduct research to expand the potential of robotics. [2] Robots have become a popular educational tool in some middle and high schools, as well as in numerous youth summer camps, raising interest in programming, artificial intelligence and robotics among ...

8. Bio-inspired robotics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bio-inspired_robotics

   Biomimicry is copying from nature while bio-inspired design is learning from nature and making a mechanism that is simpler and more effective than the system observed in nature. Biomimicry has led to the development of a different branch of robotics called soft robotics. The biological systems have been optimized for specific tasks according to ...

9. Octobot (robot) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octobot_(robot)

   Octobot is a proof of concept soft-bodied autonomous robot. [1] The project team included Harvard University faculty members Robert Wood and Jennifer A. Lewis, along with researchers with backgrounds in mechanical engineering, 3D printing, microfluidics, and robotics. [2] [3] Octobot was described in the journal Nature in 2016. [4]
