In-flight high-speed object capturing is crucial in nature to improve survival and adaptation to the environment, such as the predation of frogs, leopards, and eagles. Despite its ubiquitousness in nature, capturing fast-moving objects is extremely challenging in engineering implementations. In this paper, we report an ultrafast gripper based on tunable bistable structures. Different from current ...
