Integration of Motor Proteins – Towards an ATP Fueled Soft Actuator
We present a soft bio-machine constructed from biological motors (actin/myosin). We have found that chemically cross-linked polymer-actin complex gel filaments can move on myosin coated surfaces with a velocity as high as that of native F-actin, by coupling to ATP hydrolysis. Additionally, it is shown that the velocity of polymer-actin complex gel depends on the species of polycations binding t...
متن کاملSoft, Rotating Pneumatic Actuator.
This article describes a soft pneumatic actuator that generates cyclical motion. The actuator consists of several (three, four, or five) chambers (arranged around the circumference of a circle surrounding a central rod) that can be actuated independently using negative pressure (or partial vacuum). Sequential actuation of the four-chamber device using reduced pressure moves the central rod cycl...
متن کاملPneumatic Soft Actuator for Human Assist Technology
In the coming advanced age society, an innovative technology to assist the activities of daily living of elderly and disabled people and the heavy work in nursing is desired. To develop such a technology, an actuator safe and friendly for human is required. It should be small, lightweight and has to provide a proper softness. We call such an actuator soft actuator. A pneumatic rubber artificial...
متن کاملA soft pop-up proprioceptive actuator for minimally invasive surgery
INTRODUCTION Surgical robots and miniaturized smart instruments have been developed to overcome limitations of current tools and further reduce invasiveness of surgical procedures [1][2]. This miniaturization effort, as well as the development of more flexible instruments that can navigate the body following complex anatomical paths toward the surgical target, often leads to the loss of sensory...
متن کاملKirigami skins make a simple soft actuator crawl
Bioinspired soft machines made of highly deformable materials are enabling a variety of innovative applications, yet their locomotion typically requires several actuators that are independently activated. We harnessed kirigami principles to significantly enhance the crawling capability of a soft actuator. We designed highly stretchable kirigami surfaces in which mechanical instabilities induce ...
