Projekt BROADCAST will deliver a new class of powerful soft, biomimetic systems that can interact with their environment in a save, bio-inspired way. The approach is based on major advances in the production technology of dielectric elastomers (DE) circuitry, new soft electronic materials, and new approaches in signal processing. BROADCAST investigates multi-functional DEs that drive robotic structures based on bio-inspired electro-mechanical control strategies such as central pattern generators, autonomous peristalsis, locomotion and similar others. This requires new materials for flexible electrodes and sensors that provide curtailed electrical and electro-mechanical properties, such as Young's-modulus, conductivity and piezo-resistivity.

Projekt BROADCAST将提供一种新的强大的软仿生系统，可以以一种节省的、生物启发的方式与环境进行交互。该方法基于介电弹性体（DE）电路生产技术的重大进展，新的软电子材料和信号处理的新方法。BROADCAST研究了基于生物启发的机电控制策略驱动机器人结构的多功能DE，如中央模式发生器，自主运动，运动等。这需要用于柔性电极和传感器的新材料，其提供缩减的电气和机电性能，例如杨氏模量、导电性和压阻性。
