The actuators are oil-filled plastic bags, similar to those used to make ice cubes.
About half of each bag is coated on either side with a black electrode made of a conductive material.
Buchner explains that "as soon as we apply a voltage to the electrodes,
they are attracted to each other due to static electricity.

And press the fluid out....
So electrostatic actuators!
