IPMC is a type of smart material called an electroactive polymer Consists of an ionic polymer such as Nafion or Flemion and a conducive metal such as platinum or gold COMSOL multi-physics simulations accurately model the experimental displacement results Optimization performed using the multi-physics model to find the maximum deflection, force, and twisting Using the closed loop control system accurate IPMC tip location can be achieved This control system has been extended to function using a computer mouse as an inpu
