SOFT ACTUATOR AND METHODS OF FABRICATION |
| 摘要 |
Soft actuators are fabricated from materials that enable the actuators to be constructed with an open-celled architecture such as an interconnected network of pore elements. The movement of a soft actuator is controlled by manipulating the open-celled architecture, for example inflating/deflating select portions of the open-celled architecture using a substance such as compressed fluid. |

1. A method for producing a soft actuator, comprising the steps of:
combining two or more materials into a mixture, wherein a first material is an elastomer material and a second material is an additive material; and curing the mixture to obtain a cured mixture that produces a structure with an open-celled architecture in the form of an interconnected network of pore elements with each pore element defined by a wall. |
