The novel device imitates the variable stiffness of a human touch.
"Robotic arms are too rigid so they cannot make such a soft human-like grasp on delicate objects, for example, an egg.
"In this paper, we managed to develop a soft device with variable stiffness, to be mounted on the end robotic arm for making the robot-object contact safe."Best of all, the new device consists of a silicone sponge that is a cheap and easy-to-fabricate material. Once squeezed, the sponge stiffens which is why it can be transformed into a variable-stiffness device.
