Variable Stiffness Fabrication

Variable Stiffness Fabrication is a fabrication methodology in soft robotics that enables the systematic integration of materials or structures capable of modulating their mechanical rigidity on demand, thereby distinguishing itself from conventional static stiffness approaches by providing adaptive compliance within a single robotic system.
