Abstract
Soft-matter robots provide safe and compatible interaction with human beings; used in areas such as delivering drugs, biopsies, and angioplasties. Soft robots can navigate through tightly constricted regions by modifying their structure and movement patterns. This article looks into the current state of art in the field of soft robotics and its increasing demand in today's world. Soft robotics has greatly influenced our lives today by accomplishing the otherwise difficult and dangerous tasks. This review focuses on the drawbacks and the future of soft robots. A lot of potential applications of soft robots are yet on hold since more research and development is required in this field.Keywords
