Abstract
Soft robots have become increasingly prevalent in today's AI era due to their ability
to meet the specialized needs and technological advancements that rigid robots cannot. Soft
robots are characterized by their flexibility, deformability, and variable stiffness, which greatly
compensate for the limitations of rigid robots in specialized environments. This chapter aims
to provide extensive examples of how soft robots are being applied in various areas including
underwater exploration, agriculture, medicine, industry and space. The chapter will discuss the
types of soft robots, their movement characteristics, driving methods, and the advantages they
bring to different applications. By showcasing the vast potential and research value of soft
robots, this chapter underscores their significant role in promoting technological innovation and
societal progress.
