A team of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University’s Soft Machines Lab has created a soft robot inspired by the quick and agile brittle star, the first mobile and untethered underwater crawling robot. The robot, named PATRICK, is the first mobile and untethered underwater crawling soft robot. “It’s a robot that crawls along the seabed, and part of the value of the platform is that the limbs are made of rubber,” said Patterson, who collaborated with Keene Chin, a Ph.D. candidate in robotics an
