Soft robotics is area in robotics in which robots, more specifically robotic actuators, are modeled based on how living organisms move and adapt to their surroundings. Rather than using rigid actuators and materials for robot design, using soft actuators provides an additional level of flexibility and adaptability of robotic manipulators. Soft robotic actuators are typically pneumatic actuators which perform movement or contraction when air within actuators is compressed. Excellent tutorials, resources and demonstrations in the area of soft robotics can be found at Soft Robotic Toolkit, a site built from research conducted at Harvard University and Trinity College Dublin.
