Abstract
Data detailed on Robotics have been pr esented. According to news reporting originating from Zhuhai, People's Republic of China, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Here we present a new type of soft motors, termed Electric Field Induced Mechanical Flapping (EFIMF) motor s, which are robust and present versatile potential applications. The EFIMF moto rs harness an actuation mechanism that combines two processes: 1) using the elec tric field to induce charges, and 2) coupling the electromechanical forces to ac hieve fast and robust actuation." Financial support for this research came from National Natural Science Foundatio n of China (NSFC). Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Sun Yat-sen University, "Our EFIMF motor can remain functional even with its electrode punctured by a m etal needle. The EFIMF motors also present the fault-tolerant capability, which helps them to survive the dielectric breakdown. We demonstrate a robust crawling soft robot, which is powered by one EFIMF motor and capable of surviving contin uous hammering. We also show a wearable haptic glove powered by five EFIMF motor s, generating rich notification signals with a wide frequency range and differen t mechanical feedback intensities."
