A Monolithic Force-Proprioception Soft Acutuator Enabled by Single-Material 3D printing

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 21, 2026 · UTC

Pneumatic proprioceptive actuators integrate actuation and sensing for soft robots that attract interest due to functional potential. Existing approaches often suffer from assembly errors or stress concentrations caused by heterogeneous materials. In this work, we propose the Monolithic Force-Proprioception Soft (MFPS) design and fabrication method that integrates an Asymmetric Origami Bending (AOB) chamber and a Force-Proprioception Soft (FPS) sensor with single material through one-step Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) fabrication. Based on the resistance response to strain of conductive ther
