Artificial muscle is a type of material that mimics the properties of natural muscle tissue. It is usually made from smart materials such as shape memory alloys, electroactive polymers, or piezoelectric materials. These materials can contract, expand, bend or twist when an electric current is applied. Artificial muscles can be used to power robotic limbs, create movement, and even generate force. They are a key part of the future of robotics and will be essential in the development of smarter, more advanced robots.
