Abstract:
Current methods lack one-step actuation programming for weave structures that can achieve multimodal motions in fiber and fabric actuators. Fiber and fabric actuators with dual-response to magnetic fields and near-infrared (NIR) light were fabricated via direct ink writing (DIW) in this work, and have 105.3 J kg-1 energy density, enabling multimodal motions including rolling, grasping, and transportation.
