“…Kwon et al [126] developed a mobile phone vibration driver by using bimorph piezoelectric ceramics. This structure can also be applied in other materials; for example, Park et al [127] used the upper and lower layers of PVDF piezoelectric film and magnetic tape as the main body and the PVDF piezoelectric film and magnetic tape as the legs to make the soft robot. Under the 160 Hz resonance frequency, the robot applied ±65 V AC voltage and achieved a good mobility performance of 35.3 mm/s.…”

The booming wearable market and recent advances in material science has led to the rapid development of the various wearable sensors, actuators, and devices that can be worn, embedded in fabric, accessorized, or tattooed directly onto the skin. Wearable actuators, a subcategory of wearable technology, have attracted enormous interest from researchers in various disciplines and many wearable actuators and devices have been developed in the past few decades to assist and improve people’s everyday lives. In this paper, we review the actuation mechanisms, structures, applications, and limitations of recently developed wearable actuators including pneumatic and hydraulic actuators, shape memory alloys and polymers, thermal and hygroscopic materials, dielectric elastomers, ionic and conducting polymers, piezoelectric actuators, electromagnetic actuators, liquid crystal elastomers, etc. Examples of recent applications such as wearable soft robots, haptic devices, and personal thermal regulation textiles are highlighted. Finally, we point out the current bottleneck and suggest the prospective future research directions for wearable actuators.

“…It is driven by piezoelectric vibration under the structure of piezoelectric twin-wafer, and the maximum rotation speed is as high as 118.3r/min; Kwon et al [128] developed a mobile phone vibration driver by using piezoelectric ceramics of dual piezoelectric wafer type. In addition, this structure can also be applied in other materials, for example, Park et al [129] used the upper and lower layers of PVDF piezoelectric film and tape as the main body and the PVDF piezoelectric film and tape as the legs to make the soft robot. Under the 160Hz resonance frequency, the robot applied ±65V AC voltage and achieved a good mobility performance of 35.3mm/s.…”

Background/Objectives: In the worldwide scenario diffusing any explosive is the challenging task for any defense. This research aims to develop an unmanned ground robot for disusing such explosives with live surveillance. Methods/Statistical analysis: Diffusing any explosive requires human effort adversely at risk. Incorporating a lightweight mobile robot consisting 4 DOF robotic arms which can do multiple operations with a tool armor. Also, a moving vehicle that can crawl lobes and travel to places where a human cannot reach while operating the robot with radio frequency which is difficult to hack in a short span along with live 360 o video transmitting system. Findings: Surveillance system developed can observe the motion tracking and visual identification to study the type of explosive. This wireless diffusion system prototype can be operated remotely within a range of 100 meters while surveillance and operating the robotic arms. This unmanned ground robot can stream live at 60Hz and can sense any motions in the vicinity of the camera with security alert of movements by artificial intelligence. In the context current robots run on IR transmitter, RF transmission used in the current unmanned ground robot can be operated even in the vicinity of signal jammers. Novelty/Applications: Unmanned ground robot is unique with its RF transmitter with 360 o live steaming operating multiple interchangeable armors with artificial intelligence identifying the motions in the vicinity of the surveillance.
