💬 Mensagem aos estudantes
{'encouragement': 'Soft robotics is one of the most exciting frontiers in engineering. These robots can go where rigid robots cannot and interact safely with humans.', 'action': 'Design your own soft gripper. Experiment with different actuator pressures. Watch how changing the material affects behavior.', 'dream': 'A student in Kenya might design a soft robot for agriculture. An engineer in Brazil might create wearable assistive devices. The future of robotics is soft!', 'wiaVision': 'WIA believes everyone should experience cutting-edge robotics research. Soft robots represent a paradigm shift in how we think about machines.'}
