Outline of Final Research Achievements	In this research, we had developed a IPMC actuator that IPMC with the self sensing functions which also function as a sensor as an actuator to a small gripper system. As a result, the measurement signal is correlate with the displacement. However , a further precision is need and zero divide problem when the actuator voltage are small is coped with is needed If this self-sensing actuator is used as a sensor.
