Design of a Bistable Artificial Venus Flytrap Actuated by Low Pressure with Larger Capture Range and Faster Responsiveness

The rapid closure of the Venus flytrap (<i>Dionaea muscipula</i>) can be completed within 0.1–0.5 s due to the bistability of hyperbolic leaves and the curvature change of midrib. Inspired by its bistable behavior, this paper presents a novel bioinspired pneumatic artificial Venus flytra...
