A Design and Fabrication Approach for Pneumatic Soft Robotic Arms Using 3D Printed Origami Skeletons The paper proposes a design and fabrication process for flexible robotic arms using an origami method. The origami skeleton combined with a pneumatic actuation system allows for fast activation while retaining pressure and tension. Using 3D printing is also good

Welcome
Welcome to Creative Soft Robotics, a young IDeATe course first presented in Spring 2021. In this experimental seminar we will read current academic literature on soft robotics and art, then apply research techniques to making innovative soft kinetic sculpture. Our experiments will focus with casting silicone rubber in 3D-printed molds with pneumatic or tendon-drive actuation.
