We are creating of a Soft Robotics Lab within the School of Computer Sciences at the University of Nottingham. The lab will comprise of two spaces. The first space will be dedicated to building soft robotic sensors and actuators and will be located in the Mixed Reality Lab workshop so that the existing 3D printers soldering station and laser cutter can be used.  The second space will be directly opposite the workshop and will be dedicated to characterising the senor and actuators built in the workshop.
