Inspired by the appendices of cephalopods, hybrid material systems will be developed in which 3D conformability and bond strength can be actively controlled by external triggers.
Soft robotics is a young and promising field, and offers an exciting, radically different approach to operate safely and reliable in human-inhabited environments.
