Abstract
LDPE Pouch Robots
In article number 2401052, Yifan You, Ronald S. Fearing, and co-workers create soft inflatable pouch robots with many independent degrees of freedom from multiple layers of 38 micron thermoplastic films. This new fabrication method uses inkjet-printed solvent ink to pattern pouch layers, enabling the integration of pouch actuators, structures, channels, and pneumatic ports within one process. Application examples include a 4-finger 8-independent-DoF pouch hand performing in-hand manipulation, and a 10-independent-DoF continuum manipulator performing planar pick-and-place.
