Abstract
An uphill climb: The title systems show fast, reversible bending with a large strain. Such hinges can power remote‐controlled soft robots, including foldable origami structures, Venus flytrap‐inspired grippers that can pick up delicate objects, and inchworm walkers that can crawl up a 50 incline (see picture).
