1 Introduction Bio-inspired soft robots fabricated from compliant materials with low elastic moduli in the range of natural organisms (104–109 Pa) are needed in order to provide safe human interaction,[1-3] high adaptability to harsh environments, and high levels of agility to achieve complex tasks. They can be designed to mimic the movements of living organisms, making them ideal for tasks that require dexterity, flexibility, and adaptability.
