Pneumatic Soft Actuators

Pneumatic Soft Actuator is a type of soft actuator that generates motion through the controlled inflation of compliant, elastomeric structures using pressurized gas, distinguishing it from rigid or electrically driven actuators by its inherent flexibility, low density, and large-strain deformability.
