This project focuses on developing synthetic materials that mimic the autonomous movement of living organisms. By integrating robotics with advanced metamaterials, it aims to create materials capable of shape-changing and locomotion in complex environments, overcoming current limitations in design and control.
Living materials such as cells, tissues and simple organisms are animate.
They autonomously and adaptively navigate their environment and are resilient to damage.
Can we take inspiration from Nature and create synthetic animate materials?
This dream has now become tangible thanks to major progress in the field of mechanical metamaterials.
Metamaterials are composites that exhibit exceptional properties by leveraging geometric effects within their architecture.
For example, they exhibit on-demand…
