Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments relate to unique structures for robotic end-of-arm-tools (EOATs). In particular, exemplary embodiments provide structures allowing a displacement fluid to be discharged from a distal end of a robotic finger. The discharge may be used to displace a target object, such as an object that is adjacent to another blocking object or the side of a container. After the target object is displaced, the EOAT may be better able to maneuver into a gripping posture and may be able to secure a better grasp on the target object.

Claim (Index 3):
The end effector of  claim 1 , further comprising a strain limiting layer on a radially interior surface of the soft robotic finger, the strain limiting layer comprising a plurality of rigid slats, wherein the channel is embedded in the strain limiting layer.
