Soft Actuator Model for a Soft Robot With Variable Stiffness by Coupling Pneumatic Structure and Jamming Mechanism

Current research into soft robots not only needs to improve their compliance, but also requires consideration of the real-time controllability of rigidity and flexibility. By combining the advantages of Pneu-Net structure and the driven jamming mechanism, we developed a soft actuator model for a sof...
