Rigid-soft hybrid grippers show good protection and high-payload capacity for fragile and heavy objects. However, because of inadequate actuation speed, it is still challenging for hybrid grippers to grasp moving objects in unstructured environments. To solve the limitation, this article presents a …

There are many instances of helical mechanisms that are used to efficiently grasp different objects with various shapes and sizes in nature. Inspired by the helical grasping in the nature, we proposed a helical bistable soft gripper with high load capacity and energy saving. An off-the-shelf bistabl…
