Many Jobs At A Time - Soft Robotic
Last night I read an article about soft robotics at the IEEE Spectrum magazine . This article was publish by Cecilia Laschi at March, 2017 which name is "A robot octopus points the way to soft robotics". Then I found the related article from the internet.(You can access from this link ). The article was simply related with soft robotic project and outcomes of this project. " As a professor at the BioRobotics Institute at the Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna, in Pisa, Italy, I lead a team investigating soft robotics. This relatively new field of research has the potential to upend our ideas about what robots are capable of and where they can be useful. I chose to build robots that mimic the form of the octopus for two reasons. First, because they’re well suited to demonstrate the many advantages that come when a machine can flex and squish as needed. Also, it’s an excellent engineering challenge: An octopus with eight wiggly arms, which must work together in the face of
