This article presented a four-fingered soft bionic robotic gripper with variable effective
actuator lengths. By combining approaches of finite element analysis, quasi-static analytical …

This article presented the optimization parameter of a bidirectional soft actuator and
evaluated the properties of the actuator. The systematic simulation was conducted to …

This article presents a two-finger soft-robotic gripper with enveloping grasping (EG) and
pinching grasping (PG) modes. The proposed soft-robotic gripper is based on a two-finger …

Soft grippers have attracted increasing attention due to safer and more adaptable human–
machine and environment-machine interactions. However, it has always been a challenge …

Compliant grasping is crucial for secure handling objects not only vary in shapes but also in
mechanical properties. We propose a novel soft robotic gripper with decoupled stiffness and …

The robotic gripper is an essential component for handling, manipulating, and transporting
objects. However, the parallel rigid gripper, which is one of the most widely used grippers in …

This study presents the design and test of a novel self-adaptive soft gripper, integrating
pneumatic actuators and bistable carbon-fiber reinforced polymer laminates. The …

This study presents the design of an underactuated, two-finger, motor-driven compliant
gripper for grasping size-varied unknown objects. The gripper module consists of one main …

The improvement of the load capacity of soft grippers has always been a challenge. To
tackle this load capacity challenge, this work presents four novel types of high-load (HL) soft …

Soft robotics has yielded numerous examples of soft grippers that utilize compliance to
achieve impressive grasping performances with great simplicity, adaptability, and …
