Soft manipulators offer the advantages of safety and adaptability. However, due to insufficient stiffness and single motion mode limitations, existing soft manipulators usually exhibit low load capacity and small working space. To address this problem, we propose a novel soft hybrid-driven manipulator with continuous stiffness control capability and multiple motion patterns (omnidirectional bendin...
