On 25th June, the Fifth Online Academic Forum on "Frontiers in Bionic Engineering" jointly organized by the Youth Commission of ISBE and Jilin University, was successfully held via zoom platform. Prof. Li Wen, the recipient of the Chinese National Science Fund for Excellent Young Scholars from Beihang University was invited to share his latest research progress in the field of bio-inspired physical intelligence for soft robots. The forum was presided over by Prof. Jianing Wu from Sun Yat-sen University.

Soft robots are compliant, light-weight, and multifunctional, and these properties offer many advantages over existing rigid robots for a diverse range of underwater applications. Prof. Wen had mainly introduced the recent progress of his group including the marine bio-inspired adhesive components for underwater soft robots, aerial-aquatic robots capable of cross air/water boundary and hitchhiking on surfaces, and octopus inspired tentacle for sensing and delicate grasping. The morphology and material properties of biological disc were deeply revealed, and the key technologies and methods for realizing bio-inspired physical intelligence of soft robots have been demonstrated, thus providing a new idea for the design of soft robots.
