Thin-film biological stimulation devices are a device that can be easily implanted into living bodies and stimulate living muscles, neurons, etc. In this study, we researched dependences of stimulation amperages on load resistance and phosphate buffered saline concentration. It was found that the stimulation device has a sufficient ability to stimulate the living body.
Artificial muscles employing soft actuators are recently promising for many applications, and ionic polymer-metal composites (IPMCs) are particularly remarkable. In this research, we have developed soft actuators using IPMCs driven with ionic liquid. It is expected that the bending ability continues for a long time regardless of the atmospheric humidity because of the non-volatileness.
