Prof. Hongen Liao's group makes important progress in the field of pneumatic soft robotics
Recently, research group of Prof. Hongen Liao, department of Biomedical Engineering, School of Medicine, Tsinghua University, makes important progress in the field of pneumatic soft robotics. The pneumatic concept and system proposed in this study have the unique advantages of “positive and negative pressure integration” and “controllable inflation and deflation” characteristics. The proposed design concept can be used as a universal pneumatic platform to satisfy the robust pressure requirements ranging from negative to positive driven robots.
