Distributed Actuation Devices Using Soft Gel Actuators
2000ICPF actuator is an electro-active polymer gel actuator. Distinguishing points of this new material are low driving voltage (1.5 V), high-speed response (> 100 Hz), softness (E = 2.2 × 108 Pa), and its ability to function under wet conditions. This paper introduces distributed actuation devices using the ICPF actuators.

Multivapor-Responsive Controlled Actuation of Starch-Based Soft Actuators
ACS Applied Materials & InterfacesMultivapor-responsive biocompatible soft actuators have immense potential for applications in soft robotics and medical technology. We report fast, fully reversible, and multivapor-responsive controlled actuation of a pure cassava-starch-based film. Notably, this starch-based actuator sustains its actuated state for over 60 min with a continuous supply

Although we do not know as yet how robots of the future will look like exactly, most of us are sure that they will not resemble the heavy, bulky, rigid machines dangerously moving around in old-fashioned industrial automation. There is a growing consensus, in the research community as well as in expectations from the public, that robots of the next ...
