The Keplinger Research Group at the University of Colorado Boulder has created an easy-to-implement toolkit to design, build, and power HASEL (Hydraulically Amplified Self-healing ELectrostatic) artificial muscles. This toolkit, consisting of only off-the-shelf materials, allows a wide audience of researchers, roboticists, and even hobbyists to explore and push the boundaries of this new technology. To showcase the capabilities of the toolkit, we created bio-inspired soft actuators including an artificial scorpion tail and an untethered continuum robot that mimics an elephant trunk.
