The bones, muscles, tendons and connective tissues form a continuous tension network throughout human body. This heterogeneous mixture presents the characteristics of tensegrity, providing the body with structurally integrity, stability and flexibility. Inspired by this, this paper proposes a novel soft robotic gripper based on tensegrity structures. Firstly, the design and working principle of th...
