Why do you think it's not being researched? In order to research it, you need money, you need a potential profit. Trust me, "artificial muscle tissue" sounds awesome, and everyone DOES want it, but there is probably a good reason why it doesn't exist. In fact, I can list one: Power. Even servo's cannot keep up with the power to force ratio of human muscle tissue. When you can create artificial muscle tissue that can do at least half as well as human muscle, then you are onto something.
Your work is incredible EAP's are so undervalued for the potential applications that they can be used for! Iv'e started reading your books about artificial muscles and this stuff is just incredible. An actuator that is not limited to one axis is the one of the holy grails of mechanics. Why the hell isn't this being researched more?
