Bioinspired Soft Actuation

Bioinspired Soft Actuation is a soft actuation approach that emulates biological structures, materials, or mechanisms to achieve adaptive, compliant, and efficient motion, distinguishing itself from conventional actuation by integrating bio-architectured design principles into stimuli-responsive, flexible systems.
