>>6315264>SOFT ROBOTICS About a decade ago, MIT had a department dedicated to soft robotics, I was fascinated by some of the designs, I think they were biomimetically inspired by marine life, jellyfish and octopus things etc. Some of the soft robotics designs were also assisted wearables (imagine a soft, cushiony robot exoskeleton??) I also remember googl had a Project Jacquard (computerised clothing, woven electronics wearables) as well as a Project Soli (radar that detected gestures, intended for wearables) Probably some of these had DARPA funding in them somewhere. Sadly the websites seems to have removed a lot of the old concepts (probably because of MIT Epstein funding lol) I don't know if the departments are still around, but there was a lot of sci-fi inspiration to be found in those soft robotics concepts
