Novel Design of a Pneumatic Longitudinal Actuator for Both Extending and Contracting Motions

Yasuka Tago, Yuki Satake, Hiroyuki Ishii

RA-L 2024

Various types of extendable and contractible soft actuators have been developed by utilizing their strength, lightweight, and flexibility. Most soft actuators focus on either the extending or contracting motion. In this study, we aim to achieve both motions in a single actuator. We propose a novel l
