Shapeshifting robots of the future could use liquid crystals | Scientists unveil a revolutionary discovery: manipulating liquid crystals with light exposure.
Scientists shape liquid crystals molecules in 3D, opening the door to robots that shapeshift in response to stimuli.
A recent study described a simple yet genius method to manipulate the molecular properties of liquid crystals through light exposure. Alvin Modin, a doctoral researcher in physics at Johns Hopkins University, spearheaded the study. The team’s rationale is simple: To create an affordable approach to shaping liquid crystal molecules in three dimensions.
