Our Exciting new paper in Science Robotics @SciRobotics!
Our team's @livMatS_UniFR 3D-printed soft valve system can take a hit – survives car runovers and powers a resilient soft robot walker.
Another step towards durable soft robots!

We had a great time at the Demo on @IEEERoboSoft #RoboSoft2024 today.
Our livMatS Turtle bot took a walk around the hotel and met a lot of new people.

As part of the Baden-Württemberg final of @jugend_forscht, 30 high school students visited us in the #livMatS labs @UniFreiburg yesterday. They learnt from Maria Belen Camarada @Func_mat_lab about the research on solar cells and tried out soft robotic walkers with @FalkTauber.

He just keeps walking and walking and walking...🐢 Endurance is the hallmark of the turtle-inspired #SoftRobot that @FalkTauber @UniFreiburg and his team developed. You can see for yourself in a new TV report by @SWRAktuellBW (from minute 23:40). 👇

🧵9/8 Many people have asked us how we 3D printed the walking robot. In response, we have created a time-lapse video demonstrating the process.

Forschungsteam @livMatS_UniFR #UniFreiburg entwickelt 3D-gedruckte pneumatische Logikmodule, die Bewegungen von Softrobotern allein durch Luftdruck steuern. Damit ist es möglich, flexible&elektronikfreie #Softroboter vollständig im 3D-Drucker herzustellen. https://t.co/0mTwCfrixp
