Our perspective "Bio-inspired autonomy in soft robots" has just been published with @SpringerNature in Nature Communications Materials. Open access: https://t.co/C2QCeeqhUI Organ(ism)s 🦠🐇🌿🫀interact with their environment, so should robots🤖! @BasOvervelde @_amolf

[Soft Robotic Matter @softrobotmatter]

Discover how connected but independent units find their way toward the light without communicating! The article published in Advanced Functional Materials explains how cooperation emerges from implicitly shared information.

🏆 We won the 1st prize at @IEEERoboSoft competition "Democratization of soft robotics through embodied intelligence." Our soft robot Tubot costs only 3$ and harnesses environmental interactions and light sensing to achieve autonomous phototaxis. Simple robot, complex behaviors!

Discover how interacting with a soft hysteretic valve can shift it from oscillation to pressure regulation!💨
In the Journal of Fluids and Structures, we explain this phenomenon with a coupled model. I co-first authored with @LuukVanLaake🤝🏻

Today the ⁦⁦@hetklokhuis⁩ team from the Dutch national television came to our ⁦@softrobotmatter⁩ lab to shoot an episode on #softrobots. A great way to inspire the next generation! Stay tuned🤖🐙👩‍🔬👨‍🔧👩‍🏫👨‍⚕️⁦@_amolf⁩

[Bas Overvelde @BasOvervelde]

Great to help out @NEMOamsterdam with their workshops and exhibits to bridge science to the future generation of engineers and scientists! The @softrobotmatter helped develop part of an interactive exhibit that looks at how bio-inspiration can lead to innovation 🦑🤖👩‍🔧👨‍🔬 @_amolf

[Bas Overvelde @BasOvervelde]

Interested to work in a multidisciplinary consortium on a soft artificial heart? The @softrobotmatter group @_amolf is hiring a PhD-student and Postdoc to continue the work on soft circuits and muscles in the hydraulic domain! https://t.co/6fY5NtciPF👩‍💻🤖

Our design student Katrien van Riet is showcasing our soft circuits toolkit as part of the @TUeindhoven drivers for change at the #DutchDesignWeek #ddw23. Find us from 21-29 October at #strijps 🤖🦑 @softrobotmatter @_amolf

[Bas Overvelde @BasOvervelde]

Enjoying the broadness of views on the interface between the digital and the living, at the #convergence2023 in vienna! Looking forward to the discussions during coffee and with the public tonight. Amazing to speak at such a historic setting @oeaw @softrobotmatter

[Soft Robotic Matter @softrobotmatter]

A crowded lab is a happy lab! 🔧🤖🧪🐙 @_amolf

[Bas Overvelde @BasOvervelde]

One of the many circuits that were build today by the visitors of the Eindhoven Makerfaire. Meet us again tomorrow! ⁦@_amolf⁩ ⁦@TUeindhoven⁩ ⁦@EHVMMF⁩ ⁦@softrobotmatter⁩

[Bas Overvelde @BasOvervelde]

Fantastic to have been nominated for the innovation award at the Eindhoven
Makerfaire, with our soft robotics toolkit! https://t.co/aO0FGVc2mw Want to learn more? https://t.co/JtkRvQe66Z

[Bas Overvelde @BasOvervelde]

Excited to be at the Eindhoven Makerfaire with our Soft Fluidic Toolkit. Kids of all ages can experiment, build and interact with our pneumatic circuits to learn about technology and electronics! Play is the best way to learn! ⁦@tue⁩ ⁦@_amolf⁩ ⁦@softrobotmatter⁩

[Bas Overvelde @BasOvervelde]

Ecstatic beyond words to share that our #HollandHybridHeart team has been awarded a mind-blowing 11 million euros to develop a soft robotic heart! ❤️🔬 Grateful for the funding and eager to revolutionize the field of cardiology with this game-changing innovation. 🚀

Removing support material in 3D-printed soft robotics is usually a hassle… but what if you leave it in?

In our recent work, we EMB3D print soft devices with shape memory using the support as the transmission fluid! w/@CorentinCoulais & @BasOvervelde
