Ultrafast Biomimetic Untethered Soft Actuators with Bone‐In‐Flesh Constructs Actuated by Magnetic Field (Adv. Funct. Mater. 39/2024)

Soft Actuators In article number 2401159, Renxiao Xu, Liwei Lin, and co-workers propose a series of soft actuators with a biomimetic “bone-in-flesh” construct. Enabled by magnetic “bones” and elastomeric “flesh”, these soft actuators can complete rapid actuation in a fraction of a second and survive extreme physical impacts. The simple molding fabrication method in this work can be applied to actuators with various complex structures, catering to different applications.
