Woven, In‐Air, Textile Actuators by Conjugated Polymers and Solid‐State Electrolyte Tape Yarns

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Herein, the concept of fabric actuators with trilayer tape yarns is reported. The tape yarns consist of conjugated polymer layers and ionogel, as an ion reservoir, enabling actuation in‐air. Using textile techniques to create actuators offer many advantages, such as parallel assembly for increased force output, conductive yarns for electrical control ...

A Motion‐Sensing Integrated Soft Robot with Triboelectric Nanogenerator for Pipeline Inspection

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A soft robot integrated with triboelectric nanogenerator‐based tactile sensors is proposed to achieve locomotion within pipelines and exteroception of different materials and structures of pipeline inner surfaces. By introducing a 1D‐convolutional neural network algorithm, the soft robot's accuracy in recognizing eight different pipe inner surface ...

Single‐Pump‐Actuated Transformable Dual‐Mode Gripper Based on Bistable and Origami Structures for Cross‐Scale Object Grasping

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Single‐pump‐actuated transformable dual‐mode gripper (SATDG) that combines vacuum suction and granular jamming to effectively grasp objects ranging from 10 to 300 mm in size, spanning a vast 30‐fold range, with forces from 0.5 to 21 N, is studied. Using a bistable mechanism and origami structure, the SATDG can transform between two modes and activate ...

Modular Stimuli‐Responsive Valves for Pneumatic Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Modular stimuli‐responsive valves, based on responsive materials (i.e., liquid crystal elastomers and hydrogels) and mechanical mechanisms, can autonomously regulate airflow in the presence of multiple environmental stimuli, such as light and water.
