Intelligent Actuators - Ways to Autonomous Actuating Systems
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1992Abstract The integration of microelectronics within the actuator allows to not only replace the analog position controller but to add several functions which give the actuator more intelligent functions. The actuator control is performed in different levels and includes adaptive nonlinear control, optimization of speed and precision, supervision and ...

Anisotropic Actuation in Salty Agarose Gel Actuators
2023When hydrogels that can reversibly dehydrate/rehydrate are physically combined with a constant water supply, the cycles can be controlled by on/off states and the positions of an external light source. The shrinking upon dehydration upon illumination causes bending towards the light source, and rehydration in the light-off state restores the initial ...

Modular robot designers confront inherent tradeoffs between size and power. Smaller, more numerous modules increase the adaptability of a given volume or mass of robot, allowing the aggregate robot to take on a wider variety of configurations, but do so at a cost of reducing the power and complexity budget of each module.

Electrochemical Actuators with Multicolor Changes and Multidirectional Actuation
Small, 2022AbstractElectrochemical (EC) actuators have garnered significant attention in recent years, yet there are still some critical challenges to limit their application range, such as responsive time, multifunctionality, and actuating direction. Herein, an EC actuator with a back‐to‐back structure is fabricated by stacking two membranes with bilayer V2O5 ...

Smart Actuators for Colonoscope Actuation
The International Conference on Electrical Engineering, 2014In recent years, much has been studied on the colonoscope because it is a very important tool for diagnosing colon cancer, which is the second leading cause of cancer in the developed countries. Colonoscopy is one of the most technically demanding endoscopic examinations in the modern health service.

Actuators are materials and devices that are able to change their shape in response to changes in environmental conditions and perform mechanical work on nano-, micro-, and macroscales. Among the huge variety of different actuators, polymer-based ones are highly attractive because of a number of properties such as sensitivity to a broad range of ...
