Change shape at the touch of a button
A single material can replace entire systems of sensors, controllers and actuators. Programmable materials are real shapeshifters. At the push of a button, they change their properties in a controlled and reversible way and adapt autonomously to new circumstances. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Cluster of Excellence Programmable Materials CPM develop these programmable materials and, together with industrial partners, bring them to market maturity. One of the goals is to reduce the use of resources. [Formänderung auf Knopfdruck – chemie.de]
