1. A three dimensional deformation and dynamics sensor comprising three strips of ionic polymer metal composite element, with each strip disposed along a corresponding face of a triangular column, with each strip having first and second electrodes in electrical communication with opposite sides of the strip and near a first end of the triangular column, and three operational amplifiers where each operational amplifier has first and second inputs, with the first and second inputs of each operational amplifier in electrical communication with the first and second electrodes of a corresponding strip.
