Improvement of Adaptive Motion Performance in a Flexible Actuator, Based on Electrically Induced Deformation

An actuator built with flexible material has the advantage of smaller size and can withstand certain collisions better than actuators with rigid material. This paper proposes a crawling actuator model driven by dielectric elastomer (DE), which uses the electrically induced deformation of the DE memb...
