- description: Inspired by natural organisms that cover significant distances by growing, such as vines, fungi and nerve cells, mechanical engineers at Stanford University have created a new type of robot that can grow across distances without moving its whole body. A primary advantage of soft robots is that they can be safer than hard, rigid robots not only because they are soft but also because they are often lightweight. Another benefit, in the case of this robot, is that it is flexible and can follow complicated paths.
