Fabrication

Fabrication of the soft gripper was done in 5 main steps:

  1.  Build the mold with 3D printing
  2.  Pour the Silicon mixture into mold and form the soft gripper structure 
  3.  Use an air source to power the soft robot gripper
  4.  Set up the Arduino sensors and microprocessor to collect data on the gripper 
  5.  Conduct testing and analyze data collected
