Abstract
Forceps are a multifunctional tool that can solve various grasping needs. An action origami-based forcep design allows a structure to deploy from a flat state to 3D state plus create motion while in a final 3D state. The origami-based design allows the structure to compact. A fabric inflatable structure allows for shape transformation and stiffness adjustment. This paper explores the design of three prototypes and guides the selection of optimal features of inflatable action origami-based forceps.
