Bioinspired Intelligent Soft Robotics: From Multidisciplinary Integration to Next‐Generation Intelligence
2025
Overview
Soft robotics, distinguished by intrinsic compliance, biomimetic adaptability, and safe human‐environment interaction, has emerged as a transformative paradigm in next‐generation intelligent systems. Biological systems, refined through evolutionary optimization, exhibit unparalleled multifunctionality in unstructured environments, inspiring the development of soft robots with energy‐efficient reconfiguration and environmental responsiveness. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of intelligent soft robotics via multidisciplinary integration, covering key aspects from bioinspired design principles to advanced functional implementation. Recent breakthroughs across four interconnected domains are systematically examined: 1) biomimetic actuation mechanisms that enhance actuation efficiency through innovative structural configurations; 2) programmable materials enabling adaptive morphology and tunable mechanical properties; 3) multiscale manufacturing techniques for fabricating complex heterogeneous structures; and 4) closed‐loop control strategies integrating artificial intelligence algorithms. While highlighting emerging applications in biomedical engineering, environmental exploration, and human‐machine interfaces, challenges such as actuation efficiency, material degradation, manufacturing limitations, nonlinear‐control complexity, and sensing instability under real‐world conditions are discussed. Furthermore, strategic research directions are identified to guide the development of next‐generation soft robots endowed with embodied intelligence and adaptive functionalities. Notably, by synergizing advances in materials science, mechanical engineering, and computational intelligence, soft robotics is poised to redefine the boundaries of intelligent machines across healthcare, exploration, and human augmentation. Soft robotics, featuring intrinsic compliance and biomimetic adaptability, emerges as transformative in next‐generation intelligent systems. This review outlines how advancements in four foundational domains—actuation, materials, manufacturing, and control—drive the evolution of bioinspired intelligent soft robotics, poised to redefine the boundaries of intelligent machines across healthcare, exploration, and human augmentation.
