Stress‐guided photo‐programming of cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers for 2D‐to‐3D shape–color information encoding

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
We reported a stress‐guided photo‐programming strategy that enables cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs) to achieve synchronous 3D shape morphing and structural color evolution from a single 2D film. Abstract Flexible materials with dynamic structural colors have attracted considerable interest for multilevel information interaction, showing ...

Highly Dynamic Soft Electrohydraulic Origami Actuators for Agile and Multimodal Robotic Locomotion

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Most current soft robots still lag far behind their natural counterparts in both agility and speed, mainly attributed to the limited morphing modes and performance of soft actuators. Here, the authors report a new methodology of electrohydraulic origami (EHO) for creating powerful and multimodal soft actuators with large strain, high speed, lightweight,

A Folding Magnetic Soft Sheet Robot With Real‐Time Reconfigurable Magnetization for Targeted Drug Delivery

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Magnetic robots have the characteristics of small size, non‐cable drive and motion agility, but multi‐angle folding and real‐time reconfigurable magnetization are difficult to be integrated into small‐sized soft structures. Here, the authors propose a magnetic soft sheet robot based on the dynamic magnetization characteristics of magnetorheological ...
