These motions follow precisely the predictions of 3D computational models of the mechanics. These models, in turn, serve as rapid, inverse design tools for realizing a wide range of desired shapes.

Since it's a single solid silicone structure, it doesn't have the usual disadvantages associated with typical pumps' metallic and plastic mechanisms, which are susceptible to complications.
