ABSTRACT
Magnetic control has gained popularity recently due to its ability to enhance soft robots with reconfigurability and untethered maneuverability, among other capabilities. Several advancements in the fabrication and application of reconfigurable magnetic soft robots have been reported. This review summarizes novel fabrication techniques for designing magnetic soft robots, including chemical and physical methods. Mechanisms of reconfigurability and deformation properties are discussed in detail. The maneuverability of magnetic soft robots is then briefly discussed. Finally, the present challenges and possible future work in designing reconfigurable magnetic soft robots for biomedical applications are identified.
