contents SODA aims to revolutionize assistive feeding systems by designing a multi-purpose utensil using origami-inspired artificial muscles. Traditional utensils, such as forks and spoons,are hard and stiff, causing discomfort and fear among users, especially when operated by autonomous robotic arms. Additionally, these systems require frequent utensil changes to handle different food types. Our innovative utensil design addresses these issues by offering a versatile, adaptive solution that can seamlessly transition between gripping and scooping various foods without the need for manual intervention. Utilizing the flexibility and strength of origami-inspired artificial muscles, the utensil ensures safe and comfortable interactions, enhancing user experience and efficiency. This approach not only simplifies the feeding process but also promotes greater independence for individuals with limited mobility, contributing to the advancement of soft robotics in healthcare applications.
