From: Bio-inspired multimodal soft actuator with environmental self-adaptation

A The environmental adaptation of Gymnura micrura by switching between multiple motion modes. B Multimodal switchability of our soft actuator regulated by different energy states. C The design of the nanocomposite system with two bifurcation points, discretizing different motion modes.
