basic information
**Lecture 1** Functional polymer materials that deform in response to electrical stimulation are gaining attention as flexible actuators. In this presentation, I will explain the usage and applications of ionic polymer-metal composites (IPMC), which are one type of electric field-responsive polymer actuator. I will introduce the know-how for utilizing them as actuators and provide examples of their applications in robotics and other fields. Additionally, I will discuss bucky gel actuators that can be fabricated using printing technology. **Lecture 3** One of the new actuators attracting attention is the polymer actuator. Among them, the Ionic Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC) operates only in a wet state and, although it generates very low force, it has the advantage of producing large displacements at low voltage. It is also expected to function as a smart material that operates as an actuator itself. However, the characteristics of IPMC vary significantly due to fluctuations in the operating environment. It is necessary to establish a robust control system against variations caused by the operating environment. In this course, I will introduce one example of this.
