A gel actuator is expected to be applied to an artificial muscle and so on, as a soft actuator that is excellent in hydrophilicity, flexibility and anisotropic contraction. This study focuses on the sheeted particles / polymer composite gel actuator. In this paper, the step response characteristics of the gel actuator are analyzed through experiments.
