Soft robotic gripper tested on rubber ducks and screwdrivers
Original: Rubber ducks and screwdrivers put dexterous new soft robotic gripper to the test
Engineers have unveiled a new dexterous soft robotic gripper, demonstrating its abilities by picking up everyday objects including rubber ducks and screwdrivers. Soft grippers use flexible materials to handle delicate or irregularly shaped items that rigid robot hands struggle with, and the demonstration highlights progress toward robots that can manipulate a wide range of household and industrial objects safely.
Why now: Soft robotics advances regularly draw attention as a step toward more versatile and safer robot manipulation.
