The giraffe weevil is native to Madagascar with a striking body plan (ahem) excuse me, do you mind, I'm trying to tell people about you and you're getting in the way okay you know what? they can just do their own research I can't believe this do you know who I am? I'm going to need to talk to your agent no really I'm not going to stand for this anymore

Towards Accessible Fabrication of Proprioceptive Soft Robotic Tentacles Without External Sensors
by Josephine Koe, May 2022
Abstract:
Soft and flexible robotic manipulators can easily adapt to a variety of environments due to their compliance. Although this flexibility can be a huge advantage in many
situations, soft robots have infinite degrees of freedom and are difficult to control. In addition, few soft manipulators have been created that are capable of proprioception
without external sensing, and those that have this capability often require very precisely manufactured sensors. This work presents an analysis of four easily manufactured or
purchased sensors, design and fabrication of a soft tentacle actuator, and the integration of embedded sensors into the soft robotic system with the goal of proprioceptive capabilities.
