Variable stiffness element by granular jamming (Stiffness enhancement by a wrinkle-free outer membrane)
A flexible bag containing particles becomes rigid when the air inside the element is evacuated. Variable stiffness elements using granular jamming have been used for haptic displays and robotic orthoses helped by the soft and lightweight body. However, deforming variable stiffness elements causes wr...
