    Soft actuators may benefit from human-like control mechanisms

    What the study found Soft actuators have not yet been controlled in ways that fully use their viscoelastic properties, and the authors report that they share key mechanical characteristics with human muscles. The study links these similarities to computational mechanisms in the human nervous system that may support more effective control. What the authors say…
