An Optimization Design Method of Rigid-Flexible Soft Fingers Based on Dielectric Elastomer Actuators

The soft gripper has received extensive attention, due to its good adaptability and flexibility. The dielectric elastomer (DE) actuator as a flexible electroactive polymer that provides a new approach for soft grippers. However, they have the disadvantage of having a poor rigidity. Therefore, the op...
