In recent years, soft robotics has developed considerably, especially since the year 2018
when it became a hot field among current research topics. The attention that this field …

Soft robots have significant advantages in terms of flexibility and adaptability, leading to
potential applications in the bionics field. Inspired by the caterpillars in nature, this work …

Soft dielectric elastomer actuators (SDEAs) have manifested tremendous potentials in the
field of soft robots. However, the tracking control of the SDEA still confronts enormous …

In this paper, a novel deployable tetrahedron-based mobile robot constructed by Sarrus
linkages with eight degrees of freedom (DOFs) is proposed. The robot is composed of a core …

Unstructured environments call for versatile robots with adaptable morphology that can
perform multiple goal-directed actions including locomotion in confined spaces …

Current research into soft robots not only needs to improve their compliance, but also
requires consideration of the real-time controllability of rigidity and flexibility. By combining …

This work investigates the position regulation in Cartesian space of a class of inextensible
soft continuum manipulators with pneumatic actuation subject to model uncertainties and to …

The improvement of the load capacity of soft robotic grippers has always been a challenge.
The load improvement methods of existing soft robotic grippers mainly include the …

Tens of thousands of planetary small bodies (asteroids, comets, and small moons) are flying
beside our Earth with little understanding. Explorers on the surfaces of these bodies, unlike …

Previous rolling soft robots have difficulty in balancing the locomotion speed with energy
efficiency and have limited terrain adaptability. This work proposes a rolling soft robot driven …
