Over the last decade, a plethora of soft robotic devices have been proposed for the execution of complex grasping and dexterous manipulation tasks. Tasks requiring such increased dexterity are typically executed using fully-actuated, rigid end-effectors equipped with sophisticated sensing and controlled with complex control laws. The new class of soft robotic devices offers an alternative to the t...
