Abstract:
A soft robotic actuator is disclosed. The actuator includes a first portion with a substantially constant profile and a second portion with a regularly varying profile, and bends in a pressure-dependent fashion as the internal pressure within the actuator is increased or decreased.

Claim (Index 17):
A method of actuating a soft robotic actuator, the method comprising:\n providing a soft robotic actuator of  claim 1 ; and providing sufficient pressure to the soft robotic actuator to cause the second wall to expand preferentially, thereby causing the soft robotic actuator to bend around the first wall of the soft robotic actuator.
