A Fabrication and Simulation Recipe for Untethering Soft-Rigid Robots with Cable-Driven Stiffness Modulation

We explore the idea of robotic mechanisms that can shift between soft and rigid states, with the long-term goal of creating robots that marry the flexibility and robustness of soft robots with the strength and precision of rigid robots. We present a simple yet effective method to achieve large and r…
