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. 410 0$aNatural Computing Series,$x2627-6461 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aControl engineering 606 $aRobotics 606 $aAutomation 606 $aBiophysics 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aSoft condensed matter 606 $aBiomaterials 606 $aBiomedical engineering 606 $aArtificial Intelligence 606 $aControl, Robotics, Automation 606 $aNanoscale Biophysics 606 $aSoft Materials 606 $aBiomaterials 606 $aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 0$aControl engineering. 615 0$aRobotics. 615 0$aAutomation. 615 0$aBiophysics. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aSoft condensed matter. 615 0$aBiomaterials. 615 0$aBiomedical engineering. 615 14$aArtificial Intelligence. 615 24$aControl, Robotics, Automation. 615 24$aNanoscale Biophysics. 615 24$aSoft Materials. 615 24$aBiomaterials. 615 24$aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering. 676 $a006.3 702 $aSuzumori$b Koichi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFukuda$b Kenjiro$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aNiiyama$b Ryuma$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aNakajima$b Kohei$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910746085803321 996 $aThe Science of Soft Robots$93563091 997 $aUNINA
