Researchers at ETH Zurich have just developed a new memory-material based design that evolves with environmental stimuli. These 4D printer structures contain programmable actuators that deploy autonomously and change shape using temperature alterations as the catalyst. They are also load-bearing before and after actuation, and thus can serve as great construction materials. Professor Kristina Shea and […]
