Proteinic Artificial Skin with Molecularly Encoded Coloration
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2022An ability to integrate adaptive coloration and tissue-like compositions, structures, as well as mechanical properties, and so forth into a material remains elusive. To address this problem, this work presents a solution whereby these features were integrated into a proteinic artificial skin through biomimetic design.

In the early twentieth century, US writers looked at modern food—its global geographies, its nutritional theories, and its technological innovations—and saw not merely the incursion of industry and the threat of adulteration but an imaginative possibility. Fiction of the 1920s and 1930s represented food systems and used alimentary metaphors to unsettle

Artificial and biological color: The ABCs
Optics and Spectroscopy, 2007Faced with radiation of immeasurable complexity that bears on important distinctions among objects in the world, nature chose not to measure the spectrum, even at low resolution. Rather, biological color measures using two or more broad, spectrally overlapping sensitivity curves and uses the resulting data to compute discriminants (colors) that brains ...

When biologists recently learned that an octopus’s camouflage ability was tied to its multilayered, specialized skin, engineers began designing self-disguising devices that work similarly. A research team has now combined numerous innovative materials to create a multilayered platform they say could provide the foundation for advanced applications ...

Evolving Color Constancy for an Artificial Retina
2001Objects retain their color in spite of changes in the wavelength and energy composition of the light they reflect. This phenomenon is called color constancy and plays an important role in computer vision research. We have used genetic programming to automatically search the space of programs to solve the problem of color constancy for an artificial ...

Artificial Cephalopod Skins with Switchable Appearance Color
Macromolecular Rapid CommunicationsAbstractCephalopods such as squids, octopuses, and cuttlefishes can change their bodies’ color to match the surrounding environments by contracting or expanding the sac just below the surface of the skin. Inspired by this mechanism, artificial cephalopod chromatophores which are prepared by thermoresponsive poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide)‐based hydrogel ...
