Robophysics is an emerging scientific field to understand the physical principles of how robots move in the complex real world, analogous to biophysics to understand the motions of biological systems.[1] This emerging area has demonstrated the need for a physics of robotics and reveal interesting problems at the interface of nonlinear dynamics, soft matter, control and biology.
