ABSTRACT

Soft robotics is a relatively new discipline concerned with the design, production, and control of soft, flexible, and adaptable robotic systems. The capacity to morph, or alter the shape in response to external inputs, is a critical element of soft robotics. This feature allows the robot to adapt to changing situations and jobs, making it more adaptable and helpful in a wide range of applications. This research has described a unique technique for designing adaptable morphs for soft robotics utilizing a solid combination of Blender and Unreal Engine. The suggested method uses both the real-time simulation features of Unreal Engine and the modeling and animation features of Blender to test and improve the morphs in a virtual world. The virtual environment simulates the real-world context in which the soft robotic system will function. The simulation's output is then exported and utilized to drive a real-world soft robotic system. Experiments are used to validate the suggested technique, and the findings are evaluated and debated. The technique has been proven helpful in designing and developing adaptive morphs for soft robotics, and it contributes to realizing soft robotics' full potential.
