Soft robotics aims to close the performance gap between built and biological machines through materials design. robots are constructed from soft, actuatable be physically intelligent, or have traits that living organisms possess such as passive adaptability morphological computation their compliant, deformable bodies. However, selection for physical intelligence often involves low-performance and/or energy-inefficient, stimuli-responsive actuation. Additional challenges in soft robot...

Structural electrolytes present advantages over liquid varieties, which are critical to myriad applications. In particular, structural based on polymerized ionic liquids or poly(ionic liquids) (pILs) provide wide electrochemical windows, high thermal stability, nonvolatility, and modular chemistry. However, current methods of fabricating from pILs their composites limitations. Recent advances have been made in 3D printing pIL electrolytes, but techniques limit the complexity forms that can...
