Edible materials have been utilized for soft robots and made them biodegradable and biocompatible. So far, the authors have devised and realized not only soft edible robotic elements but also hard edible materials essential to tasks such as insertion into a narrow environment. However, hard materials tend to require casting mold and thus have infeasible shapes. In this research, In this research, we have devised and devised an edible flexible rigid switching mechanism capable of switching the rigidity state, which was flexible and stiff, respectively, in the research and development of the edible robot we are working on, Characteristics were confirmed by actual experiments.
