Decreasing the Cost of Morphing in Adaptive Morphogenetic Robots

Dec 19, 2025

Decreasing the Cost of Morphing in Adaptive Morphogenetic Robots: By using kirigami laminar jamming flippers, the Jamming Amphibious Robotic Turtle (JART) can quickly morph its limbs to adapt to changing terrain. This pneumatic layer jamming technology enables multi-environment locomotion on land and water by changing the robot's flipper shape and stiffness to decrease the cost of transport.
