Abstract Soft actuators, which can deform under external stimuli, have been used in many fields such as biomedical, robotics and so on. However, most of the existing soft actuators are limited to one operation method and cannot play a full role under different environmental conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a software actuator that can respond to multiple stimuli. Because of their excellent optical properties, mechanical strength, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and good flexibility and stability, carbon-based materials have a broad application prospect in the field of actuators. A shape-designable multi-response actuator is developed through a simple filtration process. The actuator can change the structure to convert other forms of energy to mechanical energy under three stimuli (electricity, humidity and infrared light). It has great application potential in the fields of flexible switches, artificial muscles, soft robots and environmental monitoring.
