- | The design of fast pneummatic networks was first outlined in the Harvard University paper: {{ :soft-robotics:mosadegh_et_al-2014-advanced_functional_materials.pdf |Pneumatic Networks for Soft Robotics that Actuate Rapidly}}. | + | The design of fast pneummatic networks was first outlined in the Harvard University paper: {{ :soft-robotics:mosadegh_et_al-2014-advanced_functional_materials.pdf |Pneumatic Networks for Soft Robotics that Actuate Rapidly}}. Its fabrication process is described in the [[http://http://softroboticstoolkit.com/|Soft Robotics Toolkit]] website. |
+ | As opposed to [[soft-robotics:slow-pneunet|Slow Pneunets]] that are composed of uniformly interconnected pressurized cells, the fast pneunet inserts a gap between cells in order to minimize the volume that is pressurized. This results in a more efficient design that requires less pressure in order to actuate. | ||
