The goal of this textbook is to equip readers with as structured
knowledge of soft robotics as possible. Seeking to overcome the
limitations of conventional robots by making them more flexible,
gentle and adaptable, soft robotics has become one of the most
active fields over the last decade. Soft robotics is also highly
interdisciplinary, bringing together robotics, computer science,
material science, biology, etc. After the introduction, the content
is divided into three parts: Design of Soft Robots; Soft Materials;
and Autonomous Soft Robots. Part I addresses soft mechanisms,
biological mechanisms, and soft manipulation & locomotion. In
Part II, the basics of polymer, biological materials, flexible
& stretchable sensors, and soft actuators are discussed from a
materials science standpoint. In turn, Part III focuses on modeling
& control of continuum bodies, material intelligence, and
information processing using soft body dynamics. In addition, the
latest research results and cutting-edge research are highlighted
throughout the book. Written by a team of researchers from highly
diverse fields, the work offers a valuable textbook or technical
guide for all students, engineers and researchers who are
interested in soft robotics.
