Untethered Rhombot -- Robot inspired by early Rhombiferan echinoderms from the Paleozoic Era
Untethered paleobionic robot with soft muscular stem inspired by Pleurocystites. Pleurocystites are an early Rhombiferan echinoderm from the Paleozoic Era that were among the first capable of locomotion using a muscular stem. Named "Rhombot", this robot moves with a soft actuated stem that is powered using shape memory alloy (Nitinol muscle wire).

Resilient Soft Actuator with Liquid Metal and Liquid Crystal Elastomer
มุมมอง 719 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Soft actuator composed of liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) embedded with a percolating network of liquid metal (LM) microdroplets. The LM droplets form conductive pathways that make the composite electrically conductive. Passing electrical current through the LCE-LM composite causes shape memory contraction and actuation. The LM droplets also improve the tear resistance of the LCE, resulting in a...
