• Soft Robotics: New Perspectives for Robot Bodyware and Control (2014, unknown): “…2011) and the octopus-inspired robots developed at Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, where the combination of soft materials and cable-driven transmission enabled manipulation capabilities (Cianchetti et al., 2011), legged locomotion (Calisti et al., 2011), and swimming (Giorgio Serchi et al., 2013).”
• Soft Robotic Grippers for Biological Sampling on Deep Reefs (2016, methodology): “Two such arms, the OCTOPUS robot by Cianchetti et al. 13 and the OCTarm by Walker et al. , 25 have demonstrated grasping in shallow waters, but have not operated at significant depths.”
