    SoRoMoX: Fast, Differentiable, and Parallelizable Soft Robot Models

    arXiv:2608.06650v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reduced-order models based on Cosserat-rod theory are now well established, and modeling theory is no longer the primary bottleneck in soft-robot control. Their implementations, however, do not support the differentiable, GPU-para…
