What are some examples of soft robotic actuators inspired by biological organisms such as muscles, tentacles, or tongues, and how do they generate motion with compliance, adaptability, and biomimetic functionalities for applications such as medical devices, soft robotics, or wearable technology?
What are some examples of soft robotic actuators inspired by biological organisms such as muscles, tentacles, or tongues, and how do they generate motion with compliance, adaptability, and biomimetic functionalities for applications such as medical devices, soft robotics, or wearable technology?
Examples include pneumatic artificial muscles, hydrogel actuators, and fluidic elastomer actuators designed to replicate the motion principles of biological organisms. These actuators exhibit properties such as flexibility, resilience, and controllability, enabling soft robots to achieve biomimetic motion and perform tasks with dexterity and efficiency in diverse applications ranging from healthcare to human-robot interaction.
