A robot must exhibit softness so as not to accidentally damage its environment. However, stiffness is also necessary, so that the robot can transmit forces and perform tasks. In soft robotics, it is desirable to be able to switch between two states, namely a flexible state for adapt ion to the environment and a rigid state for the transmission of forces. String jamming mechanisms, which comprise m...
