SHAPE MEMORY POLYMER ACTUATORS

Resistive heating elements are embedded in a shape memory polymer actuator. Sensing elements are associated with the resistive heating elements. The sensing elements sense changes in the resistive heating elements and correlate the changes with deformation of the shape memory polymer actuator.
