ABSTRACT:
Layers of materials are laminated together preserving potential spaces that can transmit pressure generated by the use of gases or fluids. Alternatively, pre-manufactured pressure conduits of suitable dimensions and geometries are integrated between the layers. Transmission of pressure to such conduits results in expansion of a compacted device to a predetermined shape. Maintenance and/or variation of said pressure results in preservation of said shape, fine static control of surface geometries and even remote control of precise movements. Osmotic Pressure is not required to achieve Turgor type control.
