The Biomimetics Laboratory

The Biomimetics Laboratory is committed to the creation of new technology through biomimicry: the imitation of natural systems to solve problems and develop new technologies. We have a strong focus on dielectric elastomer artificial muscles with expertise in self- sensing, electronics, control, modeling, power generation, and device development.

To find out more about us, visit Biomimetics Lab in theMedia and see what we do in the Biomimetics video.

Self Sensing Unit

EAP control with real time sensory feedback is now a reality. Find out what your device is doing while it is being driven using real time sensing of capacitance, electrical charge, voltage, leakage current, and electrode resistance. Characterise new EAP devices or materials using the SSU.

EAP Controller

Focus your efforts on discovery and innovation. The EAP Controller is a stand-alone portable power supply which can create high voltage waveforms for controlling EAP devices in your research. Gain the freedom to test portable devices.

Contract Research and the Team 

The Biomimetics Lab has a growing reputation and track record for the delivery of custom artificial muscle devices and solutions.
