Structured Light Projection Using Image Guide Fibers for In Situ Photo‐biofabrication
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Light‐based biofabrication is typically performed with single wavelength light sources and within benchtop devices. This work demonstrates FaSt‐Light (Fiber‐assisted Structured Light) as a new approach to achieve multiwavelength image projection using flexible image guide fibers, which enables a variety of applications for in situ biofabrication ...
