The soft gripper can be put to use right after it comes off the 3D printer and is equipped with built-in gravity and touch sensors.

are stiff; they have a lot of leaks when they come out of the printer; and they require a lot of processing and assembly after printing to be useable. Researchers were able to work their way around these problems by devising a new 3D printing method, which involves the printer nozzle tracing a continuous path through the entire pattern of each layer printed. “It’s like drawing a picture without ever lifting the pencil off the page,” said Michael T.
This procedure lessens the possibility of leaks and faults in the printed object, which are prevalent when printing with soft materials. The new approach also enables the printing of thin walls as thin as 0.5 millimeters. Thinner walls and complicated, curved geometries allow for more deformation, resulting in a softer overall structure. "Researchers based the method on the Eulerian path, which in graph theory is a trail in a graph that touches every edge of that graph once and once only.
Following their new method, the team was able to print functional pneumatic soft robots with embedded control circuits consistently.Soft robotics has the possibility of allowing robots to interact with humans and fragile things in a safe manner. According to the team, this gripper may be put on a robotic arm for industrial manufacturing,processing, and fruit and vegetable handling. It may also be attached to a robot and used for study and exploration.
According to the team, the gripper's whole fabrication process needed no posttreatment, postassembly, or manufacturing fault rectification, making this technique very reproducible and accessible. "Our proposed approach represents a step toward complex, customized robotic systems, and components created at distributed fabricating facilities.
