Abstract
Soft Robots In article number 2201259, Dinesh K. Patel, Xiaonan Huang, Lining Yao, Carmel Majidi, and co-workers present highly dynamic, robust, and fast-responding bistable actuators for use in soft robotics. These actuators use 3D printed soft materials and shape memory alloy for rapid motions with 1 Hz frequency. They enable the creation of reconfigurable soft robots that transition between walking, swimming, crawling, jumping, and rolling locomotion.
