Soft Robotics - Building Machines from Soft Matter

Soft Robotics is a growing field in Robotics that spans disciplines to solve challenges in unique environments, such as operation near the human body. The book takes a practical approach to teaching soft robotics by introducing fundamental concepts and experimental guides for a learn-by-doing approach. It covers molecular origin of elasticity, processing and fabrication, bulk properties and practical use for a stretchable robot.
