Abstract
A hydraulically energized magnetorheological replicant muscle tissue is provided as well as a system and method for using and controlling the same. The artificial muscle tissue is capable of causing motion, inducing force and enabling control thereof with life-like action. Numerous muscle tissue elements may be combined together to form a tissue capable of causing motion, inducing force and enabling control. Each muscle tissue element may receive fluid from a fluid supply. Control of fluid entering and exiting the muscle tissue element through valves may be effected using a central processing unit. As a result thereof, life-like action and artificial muscle tissue may be formed that replicates actual muscle tissue.
