However, current pouch robot fabrication methods have relatively large minimum feature sizes and multi-layer fabrication challenges, limiting the integration of mechanisms with many independent degrees of freedom (DoF). A new monolithic prototype fabrication method utilizes inkjet printing of a masking ink layer, which prevents film bonding and thus defines inflatable regions. Multi-layer inflatable pouches of any planar geometry can be created using thermal fusing, with inter-layer connections and a minimum feature resolution of 0.3 mm. The multi-layer fabrication process enables the integration of pouches for bending actuation and structure, pneumatic channels, and external port connections. This high level of integration enables the fabrication of pouch robots with many independent DoFs. Specific examples using four layers of 38 micrometer thick Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) include 1) a 38 mm-wide 4-fingered robot hand with 8 independent DoFs which rotates a cube within its palm and 2) a 138 mm-long planar continuum manipulator with 10 independent DoFs for pick-and-place of a cylinder.

The Ag/BFO/FTO memristors emulate a combination of digital and analog RS behavior within a single device. The possible mechanism of analog digital hybridity is addressed by considering the formation of the conducting filament by oxygen vacancies, Ag<sup>+</sup> ions and Schottky barrier height modulation. The ion-irradiated BFO samples are analyzed using the Raman, XRD, and XPS studies. To uphold bioinspired synaptic actions, crucial synaptic functionalities like pair-pulse facilitation and long-term potentiation/depression are effectively achieved. More intricate synaptic behaviors are also demonstrated such as spike-time-dependent plasticity and Pavlovian classical conditioning, which represent the prominent attributes of both learning and forgetting behavior. Additionally, high pattern recognition accuracy (96.1%) is achieved in an artificial neural network simulation by using the synaptic weights of the memristors.
