As we miniaturize robotic devices, we are limited by traditional materials, components, and designs and need to come up with innovative strategies for power, actuation, and control at small scales. Insects, cephalopods, and bacteria hold solutions to these challenges and have inspired new designs and capabilities in small-scale soft robotics.
This is a family-friendly event!
