Textiles are ubiquitous materials and no man-made class of material offers such a proximity to the body and as such ever-presence in human life as textiles. Part of this is due to textiles having the rather unique property of drapability and pliability which is used in clothing. Soft actuators are flexible and typically lightweight and silent and are, therefore, well suited to be integrated in fabrics and textiles, resulting in textile actuators for wearables such as exoskeletons. In this chapter, we address various yarn and fabric actuators and describe two examples of textile actuators, thermal-driven textile actuators, and electrochemical textile actuators, in more detail.
