- add\_circle\_outline do\_not\_disturb\_on Abstract
- [ descriptionPublisher's Version](http://biorobotics.harvard.edu/pubs/2018/journal/YNarang_AFM_2018.pdf)
 
There are two major structural paradigms in robotics: soft machines, which are conformable, durable, and safe for human interaction; and traditional rigid robots, which are fast, precise, and capable of applying high forces. Here, we bridge the paradigms...
