This five-year $600,000 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will fund research at Case Western Reserve University to develop architectures for soft robot locomotion in confined spaces. The university will coordinate primitives to enable soft robots to navigate tight environments. NSF's Engineering directorate seeks to improve quality of life and economic strength through innovative engineering research and education. This award supports those goals by furthering responsive robotic technologies with applications such as search and rescue or infrastructure inspection.
