  The increasing understanding of the advantages offered by human locomotion is creating a demand for musclelike materials capable of mimicking muscles mechanisms.Actuator materials that convert electrical,heat,light or chemical energy to mechanical energy are called artificial muscle technologies,which always outperform muscle in single actuation property.
