Plants respond physically to external stimuli (such as light and electricity), and these stimuli-responsive physical behaviors facilitate plants being used as actuators for robotic systems. However, achieving robot mobility through plants remains challenging. Moreover, there is a lack of quantitativ
Under the excitation of acoustic radiation, the amount of energy absorbed and rebounded by cells have the relationship with mechanical properties, e.g. stiffness, shape, weight and so on. In this paper, a femtosecond laser-activated micro-detector is designed to convert this relationship into an ele…
Muscle-tissue of earthworms is an excellent actuator due to its membranous structure, strong force, short response time, and controllability. In this paper, we first investigated the output force, control property including stimulation voltage, stimulation frequency, and duty. Secondly, we designed,
