The Softer Side of Robots Big Cloud Recruitment

Despite the advancements in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence, Robots have not learnt how to show emotion… just yet…but when we think of robots, more often than not images of clunky humanoid contraptions, metal with hinged joints and bulky movement spring to mind (excuse the pun). Whilst there are lots of applications for hard robotic machines such as factory lines, farming, military purposes, robots are evolving into more pliable and adaptable artificial organisms. As the use of robotics increases, as does the need for more malleable machines that can assist in more intricate tasks. Building on this need, we've found ourselves entering into a new and exciting realm of engineering, the next generation of robots – soft robotics. The field of soft robotics is still in its infancy and there's still a lot of new ground to cover.
