Soft robots are machines designed with soft, flexible materials that can change their shape and adapt to their environment. Unlike traditional robots that are made of rigid materials, soft robots are made of materials such as silicone, rubber, or fabric that can bend and flex. These robots can be designed to perform a wide range of tasks, such as grasping and manipulation, locomotion, and sensing. Soft robots are often used in applications where there is a need for a delicate touch, such as in healthcare or manufacturing. They can also be used in environments where traditional robots cannot operate, such as underwater or in space. Soft robots are still in the early stages of development, but they have the potential to revolutionize various industries by providing a more flexible and adaptable approach to robotics.
