Abstract

BiSoft.Q is a bidirectional Soft Pneumatic Actuator that offers unique advantages such as compliance, lightness, no friction, low hysteresis, and low activation pressure. This paper investigates the air consumption of BiSoft.Q for its application in robotic systems. To estimate air consumption, a theoretical model is developed and then experimentally validated. The proposed model provides a foundation for future research on energy efficiency optimization of this promising actuator.
