Research.

The technology, called Fragile Object Grasping with Tactile Sensing (FORTE), combines advanced tactile sensing with soft robotics.

The breakthrough could improve robot performance when a light touch is needed, such as in health care and manufacturing.

"I'm not reading your comments. Or the Wikipedia links. Because reading is dumb! >:("

I don't understand how people like you don't realise how it seems to admit to willfully being ignorant online.

Just because you can't read more than a single sentence without looking at your phone doesn't mean we all do. Some of us enjoy reading and writing. And that "some of us" does not contain you. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
