Laminar jamming, a technique in soft robotics for regulating structural rigidity, traditionally relies on vacuum pressure activation. Recent studies are exploring discrete jamming methods for enhanced portability in soft actuators. This letter investigates stiffness control in a fused laminar struct
Many soft robots are made of polymeric materials such as silicone, urethane, and gel. These soft matter-based robots can be designed to have soft functionality by controlling the deformation, elastic modulus, and other properties of the flexible material. However, updating the shape of a soft robot
Automation in the food services industry is not as developed as in the automotive and electrical industries. This may be because (1) the tasks involve high-speed operations in unstructured environments and (2) the lack of effective robotic end-effectors. In this letter, we focus on the automation of
