Their main structures are made of hyperelastic materials or flexible materials, which have unique advantages in compliance, safety, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. With the development of the soft robot, the choice of its actuating mode has been particularly important. As one of the important actuating modes of the soft robot, the fluid actuating technology can fully adapt to the complex motion of the soft robot under a high degree of freedom. We review the applications of traditional fluid actuation technologies (such as pneumatic actuation and hydraulic actuation), and discuss the latest intelligent fluid actuation technologies (such as hydraulically amplified self-healing electrostatic and electro-conjugate fluid), as well as the research progress of all-software fluid basic components. Finally, the future key research directions of fluid actuation technology are proposed.

With the advancement of technology, the application of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) in Antarctic research has been increasingly widespread. USVs can conduct environmental exploration and data collection in extreme conditions, providing valuable data for Antarctic expeditions. This article first introduces the application of USVs in Antarctic expeditions at home and abroad, as well as the value they reflect. Then, it analyzes the technical characteristics of USVs for Antarctic expeditions and the prospects for future application and promotion. Finally, development suggestions for USVs and related technologies are proposed from aspects such as adapting to extreme environments, long-term maritime operations, and marine environmental cognition.
