Softbot: A Step Toward Soft-bodied Robots
For robots to become more lifelike, they are going to need to replace their metallic “skin” and hard bodies with a more pliable and soft membrane. There have been various research projects that are currently in the works, and a new promising project is called the Softbot is now underway at Tufts Biomimetic Devices Laboratory. Their goal is to carry out research into biologically-based technologies that use soft materials not only for skin, but for the body as well.
