仿生结构在软机器人中的应用

与传统的硬机器人相比,软机器人部分或全部由软材料组成,因此具有更强的稳定性和适应性,并且在与人和环境交互时更为安全。自然界中的各类生物均为软体结构,经过自然演变,可以适应复杂的环境,因此这些生物的身体结构和运动方式天然地可以为软机器人的设计提供灵感。文章首先介绍软机器人的制作,然后从结构仿生和功能仿生两方面综了仿生结构在软机器人中的典型应用,为软机器人的设计提供思路。

Compared with traditional hard robots, soft robots are partly or entirely composed of soft materials, so they have stronger stability and adaptability, and are more secure when interacting with people and the environment. All kinds of creatures in nature are soft structures, which can adapt to the complex environment after natural evolution, so the body structure and movement of these creatures can naturally provide inspiration for the design of soft robots. This paper first introduces the manufacture of soft robot, and then summarizes the typical application of bionic structure in soft robot from two aspects of structural bionics and functional bionics, which provides ideas for the design of soft robots.
