What are some examples of soft robotic grippers used in industrial automation and manufacturing, and how do they manipulate delicate objects, irregular shapes, or fragile materials with compliance, adaptability, and precision for applications such as pick-and-place operations, assembly tasks, and quality inspection processes?

Examples include pneumatic soft grippers, elastomeric grippers, and suction-based grippers designed for handling objects with variable shapes, sizes, or textures. Soft robotic grippers conform to object surfaces, apply gentle grasping forces, and adjust grip configurations to securely hold objects without damaging or deforming them, making them suitable for tasks that require delicate handling and manipulation in manufacturing environments.
