Robotic grippers, inspired by human hands, show an extraordinary ability to manipulate objects of various shapes, sizes, or materials. However, capturing objects with varying kinetic energy remains challenging, regardless of the classical rigid-bodied or
[90], taking advantage of a 3D printed mold of polylactic acid (PLA) manufactured with a Replicator 2, MakerBot 3D printer, created one of the most innovative and interesting soft actuators based on hybrid actuation system: DEA and LMPM. Show abstract Multimode Grasping Soft Gripper Achieved ...
Cut a piece of fabric (or printer paper if you don't have access to fabric) that's slightly smaller than the bottom half of the mold. Place the 2 pieces of the top mold together (Note: one side of the top part of the mold has a slightly larger hole. This side goes over the emp...
The design and development of soft pneumatic actuated gripper are proposed in this paper. In this paper, we demonstrate that soft robotic hands offer a reliable method for carrying out delicate and irregular shaped objects. The pneumatic finger mold was initially designed using CAD software tool ...
To capture their motions, there is no doubt to attach sensors on all gripper or glove fingers. However, for the crawling origami robots in this work, there are more than 40 possibilities of the sensor locations, which posed the challenge to capture its high DOF and multi-modal motions ...
(T-TENG) sensor could provide the information of the sliding, contact position and gripping mode of the soft gripper. Five electrodes made of Ni-fabric were distributed on the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate. The way of how the short and long electrodes were arranged was shown in ...

Finally, a mold was designed using the Solidworks software for tail pad manufacturing, and the design was printed using a 3D printer. The design of the mold is presented in Figure S1. The silicone solutions were mixed with Ecoflex 0030 part A, Ecoflex 0030 part B, and a platinum silicone...
Finger-palm synergistic soft gripper for dynamic capture via energy harvesting and dissipation Soft materials are promising candidates for robotics with outstanding performance and functionality. Zhang et al. present an energy harvesting and dissipation mechanism and describe the development of a soft grip...
