Drive mechanism coupled to a contact detector: basic reflexive omnidirectional bending mechanism principle (cross-sectional view). This figure is a cross-sectional view of Fig. 2. The contact pad is equipped with a mechanical port valve connected to the bellows on the opposite side of the device. Omnidirectional bending motion is realized through this mechanism
