In　nature,　organisms　have　evolved　diverse　grasping　mechanisms　to　perform　vital　functions　such　as　hunting　and　self-defence.　These　time-tested　biological　structures,　including　the　arms　of　octopuses　and　the　trunks　of　elephants,　offer　valuable　inspiration　for　designing　multimodal　soft　grippers　that　can　tackle　diverse　tasks　in　various　environments.　Similar　to　their　biological　counterparts,　these　grippers　must　adapt　to　dynamic　working　conditions　to　enhance　their　performance.　This　adaptation　process　involves　multiple　factors,　including　grasping　mechanisms,　structural　design,　materials,　and　application　scenarios,　with　biomimetic　strategies　offering　numerous　innovative　examples.　Despite　the　significant　potential　of　bio-inspired　designs,　it　lacks　comprehensive　reviews　that　explore　how　these　strategies　can　enhance　the　development　of　multimodal　soft　grippers.　This　review　seeks　to　address　this　gap　by　providing　a　systematic　review　of　how　bioinspired　approaches　contribute　to　the　advancement　of　multimodal　grippers.　It　focuses　on　coupling　strategies,　integration　methods,　performance　improvements,　and　application　scenarios.　Finally,　the　review　explores　how　future　biomimetic　insights　could　address　current　challenges　and　further　improve　the　functionality　of　multimodal　grippers.
