NUS researchers achieve dexterous soft-robot motion with one artificial muscle
Original: NUS CDE researchers unlock dexterous soft-robot motion from a single artificial muscle
Researchers at the National University of Singapore's College of Design and Engineering report that a single artificial muscle can drive dexterous motion in soft robots, a capability usually requiring multiple actuators. The announcement, carried via EurekAlert, suggests simpler, cheaper designs for soft robotics with applications in manipulation and delicate tasks. Details of the underlying mechanism and peer review status are not yet widely reported.
Why now: The research was just announced via a science news release, drawing attention to a potentially significant simplification in soft-robot actuation.
