Leveraging Elastic instabilities for Amplified Performance: spine-inspired high-speed and high-force soft robots
Yichao Tang, Yinding Chi, Jiefeng Sun +6
Soft machines typically exhibit slow locomotion speed and low manipulation strength because of intrinsic limitations of soft materials. Here, we present a generic design principle…
