Compliant Actuation

Compliant Actuation is a type of actuation system that inherently incorporates mechanical compliance to enable controlled flexibility and energy storage during interaction with environments or loads, distinguishing itself from rigid actuation by its capacity to absorb and release energy through elastic deformation.
