Soft Robots: The Future of Engineering and Climate Adaptability

The video introduces soft robots, highlighting their adaptability to various climates and the engineering challenges they face compared to hard robots.
Soft robots can do a number of actions hard robots simply cannot perform. They can squeeze through tight spaces, they can contract and expand with ease to fit a range of climates, they can even double as a part of the human body. Despite the benefits, perfecting soft robotics has been a struggle for engineers for decades, yet it has seen progress in recent years.
