Fig. 5

Starfish-like structure of layered elastomeric materials. (a–d) Actuation of the pneumatic network embedded in the topmost layer of the structure causes the structure to curl downward, enabling gripping of an uncooked egg; grip is sufficient to support the weight of the egg upon lifting of the end-effector.
