- The paper presents a novel additive manufacturing approach for soft robots that is faster than 3D printing, and which allows creation of structures with built in joints. A collaboration with MIT and Korean Institute of science, this paper reports results from NSF funded projects (1240383, 1138967, $8.6M, Contact: Project PI, MIT). The work led to follow on funding to develop mathematical and control frameworks for soft robots as a route to practical applications in an NSF project: Soft, Strong, and Safe Configurable Robots for Diverse Manipulation Tasks (NSF #1830901, $2M).
