Robotics is an interdisciplinary discipline embracing mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and others. The goal of robotics is to create intelligent machines called robots that behave and think like humans. Soft robotics is an emerging branch of robotics that combines mechatronics, control, chemistry, plastics engineering, material science, computer science, and biomimetics. It involves the design, control, and fabrication of robots composed of compliant materials, instead of rigid links. It is one of the fastest growing issues in the robotic community. It has the potential to revolutionize the role of robotics in society and industry. The paper provides a concise overview of soft robots and their diverse applications. Matthew N. O.
