Lab‐Scale Fabrication Process Selection for Soft Robotics: Benchmarking, Tradeoffs, and Guidelines for Formative Manufacturing of Soft Silicone Components
To close the gap between conceptual ideas and applied solutions, soft roboticists must build physical hardware. How that hardware is built meaningfully impacts its performance, as soft robots are highly sensitive to manufacturing. When fabricating components, researchers must select a high‐level process and numerous im...
