Soft shape-programmable surfaces by fast electromagnetic actuation of liquid metal networks
Low modulus materials that can change shape in response to external stimuli are promising for a wide range of applications. The authors here introduce a shape-reprogrammable construct, based on liquid metal microfluidic networks and electromagnetic actuation, that supports a unique collection of cap...
