Hot‐Plugging Logic‐Enabled Valves
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This miniaturized, soft, hot‐plugging, logic‐enabled valve enhances soft pneumatic robotics by eliminating the need for cutting tubing. Its two pneumatic actuators regulate operating pressure through a lower control pressure, achieving an eightfold gain at 1 Hz. By adjusting control pressures, it executes different logical functions, such as converting
