June 12, 2024
RALEIGH, North Carolina, June 12 (TNSres) -- North Carolina State University issued the following news release:

Researchers from North Carolina State University have demonstrated miniature soft hydraulic actuators that can be used to control the deformation and motion of soft robots that are less than a millimeter thick. The researchers have also demonstrated that this technique works with shape memory materials, allowing users to repeatedly lock the soft robots into a desired shape . . .
