Microfluidic Soft Actuators

Microfluidic Soft Actuators is a class of soft actuators that uses microfluidic channels embedded within elastomeric structures to enable controlled deformation through fluidic pressure, distinguishing it from other soft actuators by its reliance on microscale fluidic networks for actuation.
