Combination Process of a Pneumatic Artificial Muscle and a Fiber Optical Sensor System

A McKibben artificial muscle is a typical soft actuator, and it features flexibility, lightweight, and low cost. It consists of a rubber tube and a sleeve which is woven with spiral fibers, and contracts axially by applying pneumatic pressure to the rubber tube. We have developed the combination str...
