Meet Matthew Borgatti, owner of Sleek and Destroy, where he creates and sells frighteningly stylish jewellery designs. He is now trying to create a fully functional robotic tentacle. Instead of using run of the mill technology, he's come up with a new way to design and create the tentacle. He's creating the 3d design in CAD and then is using disposable molds made of silicon filled with wax. The tentacle has hollow bladders within it.Once the tentacle is made, it is fitted with tubes that blow air into bladders within the tentacle. The control system is pretty simple.
