  • Structure and Actuation of Cephalopod-Inspired Soft Robots

    Creator:
    Olson, Gina M.
    Abstract:
    Cephalopod-inspired soft robot arms have been studied as a new type of manipulator. These arms have been proposed for reach and grab tasks, underwater locomotion via swimming and walking, and robotic surgery. However, the capabilities of existing soft arms are limited to simple motions and light loads. Arm design has...
