Recent solutions have used shape memory alloys (SMAS) pneumatic actuators and electroactive polymers each with their own advantages but also with disadvantages.
It is a gel-like material called an electroactive polymer that can potentially mimic human movement
a form of electroactive polymer that induces a change in form. Coulter and Ianakiev describe the DEAS as ssentially flexible capacitors sending low energy electric signals to the flexible tubular structure
