    Air muscles vs compliant mechanisms

    It needs to be able to take a ball and put it inside a box. That is the goal I set for a minimum viable product. So a decent level of accuracy and stability is needed. Could you give a sample of the systems you have seen? Perhaps a name? So that I could analyze them closer.

    Air muscles vs compliant mechanisms

    But I am learning to design and innovate. I can not do that with an already designed and built robot..?

    Air muscles vs compliant mechanisms

    Hmm, I was suspecting that could be the case but thought that if the mechanism is strong, then it will be able to hold itself without a need for a strong skeleton. Do you have any suggestions on what to research to find better methods?

    Air muscles or Compliant mechanisms?

    Hello, I am currently working on developing a soft tentacle arm robot, that can work in close proximity to humans. I initially intended it to be entirely made out of silicone. However, it seems it's not possible to make a silicone robot both soft and strong at the same time. So, I came up with 2...

    Air muscles vs compliant mechanisms

    I plan the main "skeleton" to be a slightly stiffer air vessel. They can bend into any shape without permanent deformation.
