The collaborative development of a soft robotic gripper design, undertaken with the City College of New York (CCNY) through the 2022 Manufacturing Grant, supported by FuzeHub, and further funded by a NASA Prize, has reached a significant milestone. On January 30, 2025, the City University of New York (CUNY) Technology Commercialization Office submitted a utility patent application for this innovative design. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to CCNY-CUNY for their partnership and to FuzeHub and NASA for their generous financial support, which made this achievement possible.
